"....the DOJ have this outdated idea that it's their responsibility to enforce the law."

This is an extremely naive and simplistic view. You don't really believe this do you?

It really doesn't matter if the "law" is being violated. Justice simply wants to nail MSFT for political reasons. MSFT is just too big and successful for the public's and their competitor's taste. Any law will do. First demonize Bill Gates and MSFT. Then find some pretext and accuse them of violating some law. Dress it up in legal wording for the benefit of the ignorant unwashed masses, then declare them guilty. Thump your chest and declare to the world that you saved it from the evil one.

This is also known as demagoguery. It's as old as civilization and it works very well on the simple minded.
