I would say Apple isn't as severe as something like Meta or "X" but the amount of influence apple has over the industry is insane. There's a reason why so many laptops are losing ports "because the MacBook has it" or why smartphones are stagnating and when they "innovate" they're just removing more features like the SD card reader all simply because "Apple did it". Hell, Windows has been trying to be like Mac OS for years from its flat minimal design to its oversimplification of its design to trying to make their own "eco system". Apple's influence can even extend beyond tech with their flat minimalist, corporate design being applied to every industry and building and design ever to be conceived in 2023. Everyone is trying to be Apple from Tech companies to fast food joints. Truly if we measure their influence and the power they carry moving entire industries to do various things. They are one of the most powerful company in silicon valley. Everything we hate about modern tech and how restrictive it is can be sourced all the way back to Apple.
This is all very true within the US and in regards to companies that do a lot of business within the US. Globally though, they're not nearly as big or influential.
