Apple's App Store will likely be at the center of a historic antitrust hearing next week — and the tech giant is weaponizing every tool it has to defend it

Apple's services segment, which includes revenue generated from the App Store, is a critical part of Apple's business, helping to offset slowing iPhone sales. Revenue from services hit an all-time record in the company's, growing by 16% compared to the same quarter one year ago. Sales of iPhone, meanwhile, were down roughly 7% versus the same quarter one year ago.

"You have hundreds of thousands of developers, millions of developers, that the regulators are thinking about," Gene Munster, managing partner at Loup Ventures and a longtime Apple watcher, said to Business Insider. Daniel Ives, an analyst with Wedbush Securities, called this a "preemptive strike" ahead of the hearing.

Among the biggest questions surrounding the hearing isn't what the regulators will bring up — it's whether any action will be taken that requires Apple or the other involved companies to change their businesses. If any action is taken, there's no way to really know what that could look like for Apple.
