Apple dealt major blow in Epic Games trial
Apple has been dealt a major blow in its ongoing trial against Fortnite-maker Epic Games. A court in Oakland, California has ruled that Apple cannot stop app developers directing users to third-party payment options. Apple had argued that all apps should use Apple's own in-app payment options. Epic Games challenged the up-to-30% cut Apple takes from purchases and argued that the App Store was a monopoly. In a win for Apple, the judge also ruled Epic failed to demonstrate Apple is an illegal monopolist.
