Maybe. Or maybe after a full investigation, all they have to go on is the Jobs quote. Can they file a lawsuit based on that? Sure. Can they WIN a lawsuit based on that? Nope.
What they want to do is get certain relcalcitrant publishers to the negotiating table. Those publishers don't think they've done anything wrong. Even the ones at the table just want to avoid the expense of a continuation of the process.
