Such a pathetic way to run - anything, much less a country. Imagine the import and export people trying to figure out what the orange make-up wearing old man decides each week. And of course, we all love rising prices. I'm sure this is a great economic move because he's shown how well he runs companies....Sad place to be.

Can't say I'm broken hearted. The entire crypto-bro schemes are stinky and with the orange ones involvement shows exactly the kind of scam they are. So just like drug dealers getting robbed, you sort of expect this.

Like or dislike Apple's Wall Garden - it should be up to Apple. Not third parties who want a free ride. The iPhone is a choice, and if people don't like it there a much bigger platform called Android. I will never understand why Apple is a 'monopoly'. They Are no more  a monopoly as is Ford, Mercedes or X-Box. Or Walmart for that matter. The more government intrude the more it seems this isn't about any benefit to consumers but a benefit to the companies with politicians in their pockets. 

I agree. The big government fans around here really need to consider what the courts are forcing Apple to do. And it's a muddle of a mess of illogical thinking. X-Box can continue to have a store that is run by Microsoft. Streamers can decide what movies it allows on their services, but Apple has no power to oversee it's platform...weird...

Seriously? With only like 2 national grocery chains, and the airlines are a near monopolistic mess - they want to get app stores under government oversight? Thanks conservatives. I mean, really getting more app stores will make the world so much better. BTW the oil industry and most of the auto industry acts in protected and monopolistic ways with auto manufactures denied the ability to sell their own vehicles to make sure middlemen can scoop up profits.
