all our nation’s students can access
schools that are safe, welcoming,
and respect their rights. , Education Secretary Miguel Cardona, via statement.

DOJ Sues Apple , for Monopolizing Smartphone Market.
The Justice Department and 16 state attorneys general filed suit against Apple on March 21 in New Jersey, 'The Hill' reports. .
The complaint alleges that
the tech company constructed a
"dominant iPhone platform and ecosystem," .
and "rather than respond to competitive
threats by offering lower smartphone prices to
consumers or better monetization for developers,".
Apple enforced a "series of shapeshifting rules and restrictions" in the App Store.
It has deployed this playbook across
many technologies, products, and
services, including super apps, text
messaging, smartwatches, and digital
wallets, among many others, Via complaint.
Today’s lawsuit seeks to hold Apple
accountable and ensure it cannot
deploy the same, unlawful
playbook in other vital markets, Via complaint.
In its defense, Apple claimed that
the lawsuit "threatens who we are and
the principles that set Apple products
apart in fiercely competitive markets.".
If successful, [this lawsuit] would
hinder our ability to create the
kind of technology people expect
from Apple—where hardware,
software, and services intersect, Apple, via statement.
It would also set a dangerous
precedent, empowering
government to take a heavy hand
in designing people’s technology. , Apple, via statement.
We believe this lawsuit is wrong
on the facts and the law, and we
will vigorously defend against it, Apple, via statement
