Ryan Singel at Wired News submitted a Freedom of Information Act request for Federal Trade Commission records related to a purported complaint by Adobe against Apple for banning iPhone developers from using its authoring tools to make iPhone apps. The FTC rejected Wired.com's request, because doing so "could be reasonably expected" to interfere with its "law enforcement" duties. That's the closest thing to a confirmation yet that regulators are probing for antitrust violations.
Is FTC investigating Apple over "anti-Adobe" activity? FOIA denial suggests so.
