The Department of Justice sued Apple, alleging its iPhone ecosystem is a monopoly that has inflated its value at the expense of consumers, developers, and competitors. The lawsuit targets various Apple offerings beyond the iPhone and Apple Watch, citing issues with advertising, browser, FaceTime, and news services. Apple is accused of blocking cross-platform messaging apps, limiting compatibility with third-party wallets and smartwatches, and disrupting non-App Store programs and cloud-streaming services. Despite dominating the U.S. iPhone market with a 64% share, Apple faces criticism for its closed ecosystem. In 2023, iPhone sales exceeded $200 billion, with the Apple Watch contributing to a $40 billion wearables business and services generating $85 billion in revenue. Additionally, Apple was fined $2 billion by the EU over a dispute with Spotify.
