A little over a year ago on The Decentralists – Store Wars, we talked about the looming legal battle between Apple and Epic Games, maker of Fortnite.
In a high profile trial, Epic Games had challenged the up-to-30% cut Apple takes from purchases – and argued that the App Store was monopolistic.
Epic games declared victory when Judge Yvonne Gonzalez-Rogers Issued a permanent injunction, stating that Apple could no longer prohibit developers linking to their own purchasing mechanisms.
Apple also claimed victory when the Judge ruled that with the evidence provided, the court could not consider Apple a monopolist
Epic is appealing the decision.
