Not saying Jobs was perfect, but on the scale of evil oppressors he rates pretty low in my book.

Steve Jobs and his company are being investigated for breaking the anti-trust laws.

Jobs is gone but his influence in this matter at the time it occurred is important legally and historically. Apple should be held to no less a standard than other companies in this kind of matter.

Your book and or rankings of evil oppressors are really immaterial to this matter.
