An illegal Monopoly was Ruled by the App Store
Epic Games has said that Google’s Project Hug was an ” astonishingly corrupt effort” at a massive scale. “The same corrupt deal structure Google…tried to do with Epic when they wanted to pay us off to launch Fortnite on Google Play…not launch our own store,” it added. Epic had alleged that Google wanted to pay Epic to launch Fortnite on Play but not launch its own store.
The jury decided in favor of the person who had a monopoly on the app store
A jury in the US has found Google and Apple guilty of anti-competitive practices in the app distribution and in-app billing markets. It also found that Google has an illegal tie between its Google Play app store and its Google Play Billing payment services. The court ordered Apple to make just one change to its App Store practices.
