Methinks there is a history lesson you haven’t learned.
MS didn’t get into trouble just for bundling their browser. They got into trouble using every strongarm tactic they could think of to kill the browser market. They broke competitors, deliberately crippled APIs while IE used undocumented faster ones, and put IE in customer faces whether they wanted it there or not. MS used this tactic repeatedly to corner other markets, such as productivity suites. That’s why MS got nailed.
How is this not anti competitive behaviour?
because the us govt doesn’t give a shit about monopolies.
EU might get up in their shit though.
Canada doesnt either. We are run by oligopolies
So blatantly too

At one point it went from an optional download to being required for the offering system. At that point you weren’t allowed to uninstall it.
