Wait, Apple has an illegal advertising monopoly too...?
Apple doesn’t really have an advertising business. You can criticize them for many things, but it’s hard to fault them for a market they don’t operate in.
They most certainly do

Well, that’s what I mean by “not really”, as opposed to “not at all”. It’s a single as placement - searching in the App Store. One result. No user data. That’s it.
They used to have a real advertising business but shut it down some years ago, it was called iAd.
the article is talking about how they could have a booming ad business but at present have little to none
