Supreme Court greenlights Apple customers' lawsuit over App Store price-fixing

The court split 5-4, with Brett Kavanaugh siding against Apple and writing the opinion. In some ways, this isn’t surprising, for two reasons: one, Apple had terrible arguments, as it’s obvious that the App Store is a store, and two, the one form of antitrust enforcement conservatives are willing to tolerate is preventing “consumer harm” in the form of higher prices.

I’d just like to point out that the two reasons given are reasons we shouldn’t be surprised by a 9-0 decision. They are also reasons we should be appalled by a 5-4 decision. What was the dissenting argument? “Apple has a lot of money, so they must be right?”
