Isn’t that the whole point of these antitrust cases?
Company makes a product that no one else makes. People like it and buy it. Product becomes popular. Company makes money. (That’s the reason for being in business, isn’t it?). Suddenly someone notices that the product, which no one else makes, has earned a whole lot of money for the company.

That’s not what this is about. It’s about Apple controlling it so heavily, that nobody can compete. Do you see any other Tap n Pay apps other than Apple Pay, for example? Why not? Because Apple are stifling competitors, which is illegal.
There’s also Google and Samsung pay, to be fair, but it’s not open to wider competition besides the biggest brands.
