Main PageApple sued for alleged monopoly on the App Store
Apple Inc was sued this Thursday by one of its rivals, Cydia. At stake is the Cupertino giant's alleged monopoly on its app and content store for mobile devices, the App Store.
The accusing finger was raised at the software distribution on Apple's operating system for iOS, mobile devices, something that the plaintiff claims to be an authentic monopoly practice, which leaves no room for any app competitor.
The plaintiff, Cydia, was created in 2008 and has being in competition with the company led by Tim Cook. Now, in the initial petition, buzzwords such as "illegally crushed all competition" are read to its content store, the App Store.
No other option is given to consumers as they are deprived of choice, having no other option than using App Store to install an iOS application for their devices, and this has a negative impact on the choices for programmers.
The complaint was filed with the courts in Oakland, in the competent federal court in the US state of California. This occurrence is the most recent legal litigation against the giant Apple, after the latest patent dispute case.
According to the Reuters agency, It should also be noted that Cydia will have brought this action as a last resort, aiming to reach a judicial settlement that translates into compensation. The company is reported to be at risk of bankruptcy.
Reuter's request for comment was denied by Apple but made it known that it would examine the case. He added that, for security reasons, he discourages the jailbreaking process, through which users can install apps from other stores and unauthorized software.
Google, the Android platform, is currently Apple iOS biggest competitor. This is the operating system that supports, among others, Xiaomi, Oppo, Vivo, Samsung smartphones, currently the world's largest manufacturer of mobile devices.
