Apple has long considered itself a computing rebel — the anti-Microsoft — famously, the destroyer of Big Brother in a Superbowl commercial. Now, Apple faces the threat of action from regulators, who see it as “The Man” using its market power to quash competition.
The above is from a Wired article. How ridiculous! Regulators, that is the government itself, view Apple as “The Man”? Or in other words The Man views Apple as The Man? Enough!
Apple sells computing devices that people willing choose to buy. Apple designs and builds those devices as it sees fit. This makes them a dark anti-competitive force? People buy Apple products not because they don’t have choices from competitors, but instead because those choices are found wanting.
