The US Department of Justice and 16 state and district attorneys general accused Apple of operating an illegal monopoly in the smartphone market in a new antitrust lawsuit. The DOJ and states are accusing Apple of driving up prices for consumers and developers at the expense of making users more reliant on its iPhones.

        Enjoying it so much that you’re now reporting my comments as breaking rule 1 and 3, huh?

        Also, might not want to brigade by reporting with your other account @[email protected]. Did you forget to sign out on that one? Just needed a little more umph and downvoting in this thread? Pretty sure that’s against the rules too.

        Pro tip: If you’re going to use a diff account to brigade, you might want to change the profile up a bit so they don’t all resemble each other.

            So let’s tally it up:

            • Extremely similar profile aesthetics, down to colors and style

            • Same exact account birthdays, 23 Aug 2023

            • Similar comment history, also confrontational, and many downvotes from the community

            • Both accounts reporting my exact comments, “hudson” sandwiched between your “gregorum” account

            • Each of my comments downvoted twice

            It’s extremely delusional/insulting for you to expect anyone to believe all that’s coincidence. Oh the irony of you posting the NP when you can’t even come clean when caught in your own lies.

            Have you changed your profile pics yet? Are you going to go back and edit your comments more to try and look better for when a mod gets around to your complaints? You are acting so see through right now, and it’s not a good look.

                and you’re not a mod or an instant admin

                How do you know?

                I bet I can keep you going all day.

                I’m going to exhibit, the self-control of blocking you

                So another lie. Also, you lose.

                  Yeah, I saw some reports from both accounts yesterday that made it obvious that’s their backup account. Also, not the first time they’ve done this, and they also spam report comments when they get angry.

                    Thanks for looking and not just zipping by. I’ll practice better restrain from feeding the trolls, I don’t want to make the mods lives any harder.
