A comment on Supreme Court rules antitrust lawsuit against Apple can proceed. Parent comment
Let's say you burn down a concert hall _with the intention to prevent the concert_. Then you have two different kinds of damages:
- Destroyed Concert Hall => The owner of the hall suing you because you destroyed their property.
- Prevented Concert => The visitors (trying to) sue you for "preventing" the concert.
Sure, in case of the concert I would be surprised if the second case goes anywhere, but then the situation wrt. the app store is way more complex.
