US judge allows govt antitrust lawsuit against Apple to move forward

A federal judge on Monday rebuffed Apple's request to throw out a US government lawsuit alleging the technology trendsetter has built a maze of illegal barriers to protect the iPhone from competition and fatten its profit margins. The 33-page opinion from US District Judge Xavier Neals in New Jersey will enable an antitrust lawsuit that the US Justice Department filed against Apple 15 months ago to proceed.

Graduates face toughest job market in more than decade as hiring slows

While completing a master's degree in data analysis, Palwasha Zahid moved from Dallas to a town near Silicon Valley. The location made it easy to visit the campuses of tech stalwarts such as Google, Apple, and Nvidia. Zahid, 25, completed her studies in December, but so far she hasn't found a job in the industry that surrounds her. It stings a little bit, she said. I never imagined it would be this difficult just to get a foot in the door. Young people graduating from college this spring and summer are facing one of the toughest job markets in more than a decade.
