Has Apple become an Overlord?

Who am I to judge Apple, but I believe very strongly they (Apple) are out of control with respect to their censorship of the App Store. In the not too distant past it was the telcos that were the obvious bad guys with respect to "platform lock-in." Now, thanks to the "I" franchise, Apple seems to be very happy in their new role as Overlord. If Apple has the "apples" to go up against Google, what's next?
