For the last three decades, tech companies have been operating in a "Ask for forgiveness, not permission" mentality.

Microsoft didn't get such a large monopoly by playing fair. Neither did Google, Amazon, Uber, etc.

They have always said one thing, the courts found it to be inaccurate, and then they go "Oops" and pay $500 million "cost of doing business" while making 1000+ billion.
