> What monopoly? Android belongs to them. They spent billions of dollars building it.
It's funny because you seem to use the last two sentences to explain how it is not a monopoly, where it is actually usually a precondition to getting into a monopoly position.
> A monopoly would be if they owned the only means of creating and running a cellphone operating system and prevented others from doing the same.
This reminds me of this french movie (OSS 117) where the main character genuinely doesn't understand what a dictatorship is. And he says: "A dictatorship is when people are communists, cold, with gray hats and zippered shoes."
