The Apple Watch has it's own CPU, RAM, display, potentially even cell signal. Why should it need an iPhone to work? Should your Honda motorcycle stop working if you get rid of your Civic?
I suspect forcing Apple to allow this device to operate without an iPhone (even lacking features that might reasonably require an iPhone) could come out of this.
again, seems like half these threads are ideologue android fanboys who think there’s not a file browser or think you can’t sideload an app but are hellbent on banning the thing they don’t understand anyway.
Ok, so maybe it means no app store, but general rx/tx between an Android & Apple Watch is far from a difficult task, if Apple wanted that.
They don't and that is the problem
Does Sony have a monopoly?
Is that true? I’m pretty sure they will connect up to desktops and work fine there with no PlayStation around.

No it doesn’t. You can use a PS5 controller on Windows and all current Apple operating systems.
Most likely neither are true for Sony but even if it is, it should be self apparent that distorting the smartphone market, or even the iPhone market, devices which are almost essential parts of modern day living can cause orders of magnitude greater harm than anything Sony could do in the game console market, which is much smaller, much narrower, and far less important.
And all this ignores that the DoJ's filing is about antitrust issues beyond just monopoly issues.
