    I would think, in the US, antitrust laws would apply.

    ARM is brittish

    Is this different from Intel and x86 architecture? (Genuinely asking)

    yes the ARM architecture is it’s own thing, licensed by ARM.

      I think what they meant by that is “is this different wrt antitrust compared to Intel and x86?”

      Intel both owns the x86 ISA and designs processors for it, though the situation is more favorable in that AMD owns x86-64 and obviously also designs their own processors.
