Apple disputes monopoly claims, cites ‘fierce competition’ in court
Apple’s letter to a federal judge previewed its slated dismissal motion to a U.S. antitrust suit, with the firm claiming prosecutors didn’t define where it has a monopoly.
Apple has claimed it isn’t a “monopolist” and “faces fierce competition” in the tech sector in a letter previewing its bid to toss a United States antitrust suit.
In a May 21 letter to New Jersey federal judge Julien Neals requesting a conference ahead of its dismissal motion, Apple’s lawyers refuted U.S. claims that it engaged in anticompetitive conduct by excluding third-party access to its platform and made design decisions that “‘lock in’ users to purchasing iPhones.”
The firm said its alleged anticompetitive conduct “involves Apple making unilateral decisions about the terms and conditions on which to permit third parties access to Apple’s proprietary platform.”

One wallet has upgrade permissions for 12 Ethereum scaling networks, but Conduit founder Andrew Huang says it can’t transact without three signatures which would take a trio of physical attacks.
A single multisignature crypto wallet has permissions from 12 different blockchain networks, implying that if this single wallet is ever compromised — all 12 networks could be drained of their funds with a potential $121 million in losses.
The networks include Zora, Aevo, Hypr, Orderly, Ancient8, Lyra, Mode, Pgn, Parallel and Metal — all created using the Conduit rollup creation software, according to data shared to X on May 19 by L2Beat researcher Luca Donno.
However, the wallet can’t transact without three of five signatures from the team, Conduit founder Andrew Huang told Cointelegraph. The private keys to these signatures are stored on hardware wallets, making a compromise only possible by “physically compromising 3/5 individuals,” he said.

Donald Trump says his campaign will accept crypto
Facing several criminal cases, the presumptive Republican Party nominee for U.S. President is expected to face off against President Joe Biden in November 2024.
Former United States President Donald Trump, currently facing criminal charges in four jurisdictions in the country, announced his campaign to run for president in 2024 would accept cryptocurrency donations.
