Tomorrow, Apple will unveil a new iPhone that some people will think nothing of dropping $1,000+ on. Meanwhile, many families are struggling to afford the Chromebooks their kids need for school, and the schools themselves can’t get them, either. https://t.co/0Ry4fEzI5I — PolitiTweet.org

This week’s House report on Big Tech offers a very big idea — about how data leads to dominance. But it also runs up against decades of inertia around antitrust thinking. How the tension gets resolved could have huge implications for Silicon Valley: https://t.co/p43TJb3mnj — PolitiTweet.org

Sorry, the way I framed this came across as unclear. The judge is saying that it’s too hard to say whether Epic’s antitrust claims can succeed on the merits, not that they have no merit. https://t.co/mqQSelR0CS — PolitiTweet.org

This is not the final word, obviously, and the judge goes on to say she doesn’t want to make premature antitrust decisions without more evidence. "While ultimately one view will likely prevail, at this juncture, the Court concludes that reasonable minds differ,” she writes. — PolitiTweet.org

Critically, on the question of whether Epic’s antitrust claims against Apple could succeed on the merits, the judge concludes *no* — at least based on the current record on the two claims being considered for the preliminary injunction. “Too many unknowns remain,” she writes. https://t.co/jHYbVtyrbE — PolitiTweet.org
