Lawmakers are claiming that Apple is using its privacy efforts as a disguise to keep competition at bay on iOS. Recent changes in iOS 13 and iPadOS 13, related to background location tracking for apps, give Apple's apps and services an edge over the competition. Apple claimed that they made the change as a response to developers who were abusing background location data, it has hurt even legitimate developers who rely on always-on location information.

Apple is working on a new location tracking product called AirTags, which would likely rely on background location tracking on iOS. For full functionality, it will need always-on location tracking permissions, which other services can not easily get from customers after iOS 13. This would potentially hurt competitors like Tile, who also have a tracking product. Tile is a product that can be attached to things like keys, to easily track their location via Bluetooth. If their product will be crippled due to iOS updates, at the same time when Apple is expected to launch AirTags, this raises alarms of anti-competitive behavior.
