You should provide some data to support a bold claim like Facebook and Google is sharing their revenue with Apple.

There's one big pie, and these companies slice the majority of it up between them.

When one or another of them does things that changes who gets what sized slice, the others get upset.

What does it mean to say “there’s one big pie”?

There’s one big pie of US GDP. That doesn’t mean anytime someone gains or loses revenue that they are sharing it with someone else. Or at least there is no utility to be gained from that statement.
