Summary: As the massive case against IBM monopoly (United States v IBM; 104,400 pages of trial transcripts and 17,000 exhibits) predates the World Wide Web it's difficult to find comprehensive literature about it any longer (Wikipedia and more modern sites are instruments of revisionism and reputation laundering)

WE recently used Wikileaks to access national archives about IBM, seeing that libraries are perishing and online libraries are often blocked by paywalls. Even more recent articles on this subject have been locked away from the public [1, 2, 3], so the younger generations are unlikely to learn much about what happened and why.

Back in the 1980s there were several widely-cited journal papers about it. Here's one:



Another one (much more recent):



This one we were able to get in PDF form with OCR:
