I wonder if people made comments like these in support of Internet Explorer when Microsoft was dealing with antitrust law in court.


Uh, yeah they did. Many people thought at that time that DOJ was overstepping. Many still do. In hindsight, Microsoft’s behavior at the time seems like small potatoes compared to the ecosystem protection that occurs today.


You can look at adoption rates of IE vs Firefox and Chrome, and compare them to iOS vs Android.
