No monopoly is a monopoly until it's a worldwide monopoly?



Not current numbers but some old projections put 2020 projected android users would be around 127 million users in US. iOS projected 110 million in 2021 in US. Does 50% market share when achieved even equal a monopoly?

In the US, yes. Defacto monopoly.
