Comparing the DOJ suit to the kneejerk reactions of my Apple friends (close to 100% iPhone and Macs in my social circle) the tech community and Apple pundids, I realized that it's not them that don't understand, it's us. The cognitive dissonance of blaming the DOJ's lack of tech (or Apple) savviness for what Apple's executives stated black on white is nuts. Two things can be true at the same time: (1) Apple makes great products and (2) they use their position of power to control their market.
