    So they’re wilfully ignoring the EU’s Digital Markets Act and a US court-ordered injunction that prevents them from punishing developers for trying to circumvent the use of the App Store for in-app purchases, after one of their execs was caught lying under oath and potentially facing criminal repercussions.

    I’m not the biggest fan of Epic Games, but I really want to see this backfire spectacularly. Apple’s business practices are so bad that it makes me want to see Tim Sweeney kick Tim Cook’s ass in court.

      I personally always root for the underdog when I have no stake. I thank epic for the free games I play on my steam deck, used to have an iPhone but transitioned to a Linux phone fairly early, and not a fan of either company’s current director.

      I can’t believe I’m cheering for Sweeney even once, but I guess it works out for all of us in this case.
