Apple was hit with a major antitrust lawsuit filed by the DOJ on Thursday. The iPhone maker was accused of creating a monopoly with the iPhone, but other devices were mentioned including the Apple Watch. U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland says the smartwatch made it hard to use the Apple Watch on a non-iPhone, but it appears that Apple did try to give it a shot. Apple spent three years looking to add Android support to the Apple Watch, according to a report from 9to5Mac on Thursday.
Other examples included the 30% App Store fee, the dreaded green bubble text in iMessage given to Android users, and the sharing of personal information when using Apple Wallet. Apple has since responded to the lawsuit saying the suit is wrong in the facts and the law. This suit is a major legal action against Apple here in the U.S., but in the European Union, the iPhone maker has been hammered with regulations.
