Elizabeth Warren cracks Apple etc down for anti-competition
Quote:
Warren’s core complaint is that America’s high-tech companies are increasingly using their strength in particular product areas to leverage themselves into strong positions in other areas. She offers three specific examples that target three different high-profile companies in unambiguous ways:
Apple uses control over the iPhone platform to advantage Apple Music over other subscription music services.
Amazon uses control over the world’s largest store for e-books to advantage books published by Amazon over books from rival publishers.
Google uses control over the world’s most widely used search engine to promote its own Google-generated content even when a straight implementation of Google’s algorithm would surface content by someone else.
