Apple to Face Antitrust Case?

May 4th, 2010 by Arjan Olsder Posted in Platforms: iOS | No Comments »

Following all the noise Adobe made about Apple’s lock-in approach to iPhone and iPad development, the Cuppertino based company might be facing an antitrust case says Reuters.

The case will be focused at Apple’s requirements to develop iPhone OS based software only in their SDK, which locks out companies like Adobe with their Flash CS5 and Novell with their MonoTouch.

Antitrust cases are the domains of both the Justice Department and the Federal Trade Commission. Though it is not clear which US government body will be working on the case, the Federal Trade Commission is highly likely to take it. None of the involved departments commented on the news.

“What they’re (Apple) doing is clearly anticompetitive … They want one superhighway and they’re the tollkeeper on that superhighway,” said David Balto, a former FTC policy director.
