Yeah but there is a law against anti-competitive actions too, like Twitter not allowing users choice within their profile setting on the site to select shortener of their choice.

Also, Apple and At&t rejecting apps that clearly are rejected because the app is their competition(Skype for one).

This is all new territory and these companies might be the impetus for much needed precedence!




That's an interesting argument, if Twitter is free to choose who they do business with then Apple should be too or vv.

I can't quite put my finger on why I come down on Twitter being able to prefer bit.ly if they want and Apple not being able to 'prefer' at&t...

Something doesn't jive here.
