Is “capitalism” your response to Apple’s bad behavior? Then capitalism needs regulations to rein in companies like Apple. It’s trying to claim credit for such innovations as rounded rectangles and filing avalanches of lawsuits over them. Their actions waste money, clog the legal system, and reduce competition by banning competing products. They’re patent trolls, plain and simple.
Whatever that makes me by your definition, those are my guns and I’m sticking to them.
