Apple sued by app store Cydia over alleged App Store monopoly in US

Apple has been sued in the US by Cydia, an app store for jailbroken iPhones, alleging it illegally monopolised software distribution on its own operating system. Cydia said Apple has "illegally squashed all competition" and deprived consumers of the ability to choose where to obtain iOS apps. The suit seeks to force Apple to allow alternatives to the App Store.
