IPhone users must amend claims that Apple choked competition and
inflated prices in the software applications aftermarket, a federal
judge ruled.
The consolidated class action at issue here, In re Apple iPhone Antitrust Litigation was filed in March 2012. It alleged that Apple entered into a secret five-year contract establishing nonparty AT&T Mobility as the exclusive provider of voice and data services for the iPhone through 2012.
Apple was also accused of putting software locks on iPhones to prevent purchasers from switching to another provider, and of using its agreement with AT&T to control which developers could create apps for iPhones, including those for ringtones, instant messaging and Internet access.
