I don't know how Apple has evaded regulatory scrutiny for their refusal to sign Nvidia's eGPU drivers since 2018.

Evidence that NVIDIA has even been trying? My understanding is that Apple didn’t allow 3rd parties to write graphics drivers past 10.13, but they could’ve done a non-graphics driver like this.

The government doesn’t care? They’re a minority of the market? The vast majority of their computers didn’t have slots to put Nvidia GPUs in, and now none of them do?

Apple doesn’t have a monopoly in any market they are in.

The same way Google evaded regulatory scrutiny for refusing to allow a YouTube client for Windows Phone?

They aren't a monopoly, hence why.
