On February 28th, it was reported that Apple had made final contact with the US Department of Justice to avoid filing antitrust lawsuits. Apple representatives met with US Department of Justice officials last week to make a final effort to persuade against filing antitrust lawsuits against Apple. Insiders said that the company and lawyers met with Assistant Attorney General Jonathan Kanter, who will make a final decision on whether to file a lawsuit. Since 2019, antitrust enforcement officers investigating Apple have claimed that Apple has imposed software and hardware restrictions on its iPhone and iPad to prevent effective competition from competitors. Insiders say that lawsuits are expected to be filed in the coming weeks, possibly before the end of March.
