    Specifically because Apple is engaging in anti competitive and anti consumer practices (your words) I have a very difficult time seeing this action as “dirty.” Companies will do what companies do and pursue money, but if their pursuit of money coincidentally happens to fight for consumer rights then I don’t think we should say it’s dirty.

    Sort of like “if you don’t have your own, store bought is fine” lol

      They didn’t have to play. That’s the point. They didn’t have to agree to the contract. But since they did agree (and then intentionally broke the contract), they’re wrong too. They can’t be absolved of their part in this because the other party also did wrong. This is a two wrongs don’t make a right situation.

        I’m not saying they shouldn’t face consequences, I’m saying we shouldn’t view it as a dirty trick.

          This I actually agree with except that they tried to use their users as a cudgel against the company they tried to defraud.
