The US has filed a landmark lawsuit against Apple which accuses the tech giant of monopolising the smartphone market and crushing competition.

In the lawsuit, the justice department alleges the company used its power to limit competitors as well as the options available to consumers.

Apple has vowed to “vigorously” fight the lawsuit and denies the claims.

It is the third time the company has been sued by the justice department since 2009. (BBC)
