DOJ is blaming Apple for the failure of the Windows phone and the Amazon Fire phone. It feels a bit silly.

Edit: lotta windows and fire phone fans on Lemmy it seems.
No, you are talking out your ass so people downvote you. Simple as that.

Huh. Well it certainly would make sense to blame Apple at least partially if that information is correct. Which then means that the article is real but you fail to actually understand it and it's implications.
Windows phone failed because it sucked. Microsoft had every advantage in the mobile space. They had windows CE and pocket PC long before iPhone. They also had tablets. All of them failed in their own right.
Under capitalism, you don’t have a god given right to have every product you make succeed. You don’t get to have the government step in and sue on your behalf because your crappy product failed. But, the Lemmy hive mind downvotes because “Apple bad.” People don’t have critical thinking skills or principles on here. There is pretty much no difference between a windows or Linux user on Lemmy and a Trump supporter in this regard. You picked a side and you’re just going to root for your team, regardless of the nuance or merits of the arguments.
