Direct Beef

Apple vs Epic Games

Corporate · Resolved · Beef Score 58 · Started August 13, 2020

A deliberately provoked platform fight. In the sample scenario, a game developer ships an in-app payment system that breaks the app store's rules, the platform removes the app the same day, and the developer sues, alleging monopolistic conduct. The platform counter-sues for breach of contract. It matters because the outcome set the terms for how developers can direct users to outside payment methods. A court largely sided with the platform on antitrust but ordered changes to anti-steering rules.
