True. I like the term "gatekeeper" the EU defines and uses. Combined with the "must be very big" requirement it better fits what is going on in the tech world.

  Vendor lock-in is what wecall it in the IT-sector.

    Not really. Gatekeeping is applied because you must pay Apple the tax to access its customers; not use its tech.

      I saw it from end-customer perspective. Somebody who buys an Apple device cannot choose other app stores, nearly the same with Android.
