Was there not a huge lawsuit around this kind of crap in the 90's? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_v._Microsoft_Cor....

How did this anticompetitive BS ever get the greenlight from legal?

A good thing about monopolies is that it gives the government the power to step in and stop anti-consumer abuses. In duopolies, such as Windows/MacOS or iPhone/Android, the government doesnt have as much power.

Anti-trust laws are not only for true monopolies. Any company that has a significant percentage in the market (determined by the regulations and courts) can be scrutinized under anti-trust laws. At least in the EU.
