There is no reason to do that and the DOJ has no authority to demand that. Apple is not breaking any laws by having exclusive software on its own hardware.

Are they next going to demand that Ford should include the option of a GM engine in a car? MacDonald's must allow Burger King to sell Big Macs? Windows should be available on Macs? Samsung browser should be available on iPhones?

The DOJ is way off base with this suit. AGAIN, you can't have a "monopoly" on your own product.

The DOJ knows they don’t have the authority and that this lawsuit is frivolous. With that being said, what’s the REAL purpose for this farce? Is this any attempt by the current administration to get money from Apple? Money is typically at the root of things like this.
