Epic Games to appeal U.S. ruling in Apple app store fight
The Hindu
The judge ordered Apple to loosen control of its App Store, but said Epic failed to prove any antitrust violations.
Epic Games said Friday it will appeal a U.S. judge’s ruling that loosened Apple’s control over app store payments, but did not brand the tech giant’s dominance as a monopoly. Apple was non-committal about whether it would appeal but Epic’s CEO Tim Sweeney tweeted “We will fight on”, and the company confirmed plans to contest the verdict. Apple said it is studying the 185-page ruling by U.S. District Court Judge Yvonne Gonzalez-Rogers, but was “very happy” with the decision.
