The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) has filed an antitrust lawsuit against Apple, alleging that the company unfairly favors its own mobile payment technology. This echoes the European Union's previous charges against Apple concerning its dominance in the mobile wallets market. The DOJ's complaint focuses on several areas, including digital wallets, super apps, smartwatch compatibility, and messaging, highlighting Apple's alleged anti-competitive behavior. While there are similarities between the concerns raised by the DOJ and the EU, there are distinct divergences in their areas of focus. However, mobile payments and NFC technology appear to be a common concern for both jurisdictions.
