>When you're a near monopoly, as MSFT was a decade ago, there might be some muster to your argument.
I never made an argument that depends on their market position. Either way, I don't think your comparison is apt.
Competition isn't always good on its own; it has to increase global value/efficiency to be a valid, "good" strategy. Android increased global value, Microsoft's decision to go rogue on DNT will probably destroy value. Perhaps even their own.
