Fucking lol dude. I'm no economist but there's no shot the mobile phone marketplace counts as "plenty of competition". It's essentially a duopoly. And the barrier to entry is massive.
Id like to live in the world you think we do.
Thanks to the EU we have free roaming internet across EU countries. If this was left to "customers deciding for themselves" there would never be free roaming in Europe.
I can come up with many examples like this. Companies like Apple need to kept on a very short leash.
