DOJ sues Apple, saying it's tried to monopolize the smartphone market

The Department of Justice filed a landmark lawsuit against Apple on Thursday, accusing the tech company of hindering its products' competition in violation of federal antitrust laws. The 88-page lawsuit, joined by attorneys general for 15 states and the District of Columbia, singles out Apple's signature product, the iPhone, and alleges that the company 'repeatedly chooses to make its products worse for consumers to prevent competition from emerging.

'Unless Apple’s anticompetitive and exclusionary conduct is stopped, it will likely extend and entrench its iPhone monopoly to other markets and parts of the economy.' Apple has denied wrongdoing, saying in a statement to NBC News that the company will “vigorously defend” itself against the allegations. The lawsuit was not unexpected. The New York Times reported in January that the department was nearing the end of its antitrust investigation into Apple.
