I get that a lot of users want there to be the ability to install 3rd party apps on their devices...but how can they be controlled? Malware is all over the place on the Internet these days. A user who does not know what is happening could inadvertently download and install something like that on their device...just in the same way it happens on computers.Frankly.... this just seems like the rich squabbling to get richer.
As far as this lawsuit goes I only care about 2 things:
a) I’d like to play fortnite on my iPhone again w/o streaming it from a 3rd party like Shadow or GFN.
b) I would love to be able to install (understandably at my own risk) 3rd party apps through means other than the App Store. Odds are 99% of my apps would be through Apple’s distribution system, but having the option to install things like emulators on my phone would be nice.
lmaoExactly. Studio's need to put consumers first. Don't risk their ability to get updates. Make an example of them to ensure no one else hurts's consumers by doing something stupid and greedy.
Or they could use that power to pump up the stock, wait for the execs to submit approval to sell, or Epic attempts to buy another company, and then dump the stock to make them worthless.Hey!

You’d just be trading one boot for another unfortunately. The 900lb gorilla in the room is that everyone’s going to want their own store once epic gets theirs. See pc gaming, EA, Bethesda, Epic, Ubisoft have their own stores. The reason for this is just to control the ability to give refunds and have their own “store currency” like Steam.idc what y’all say. sideloading is long overdue. this is one of the few instances where i take apple’s boot out of my mouth.
Actually that’s very illegal iirc.Or they could use that power to pump up the stock, wait for the execs to submit approval to sell, or Epic attempts to buy another company, and then dump the stock to make them worthless.
Not if it's unorganized and coincidental.Actually that’s very illegal iirc.
I would think that phrasing it as your quote would constitute manipulation. But if it’s coincidental then you right.Not if it's unorganized and coincidental.

IDK. I have a hard time with the fact that a company can intentionally sit on refunds and broken products while earning interest on the consumer's money but consumers are not allowed to buy stock with the intent of decreasing its value.I would think that phrasing it as your quote would constitute manipulation.

They have neither a duty or a responsibility to do any such thing. First, there is no objective standard of “best”.New Law is definitely needed to force Apple to clean-up its Act !
From my perspective, they have both a Duty & a Responsibility to present the Best Apps to (mutual) customers.
Both are wrong reallyIDK. I have a hard time with the fact that a company can intentionally sit on refunds and broken products while earning interest on the consumer's money but consumers are not allowed to buy stock with the intent of decreasing its value.
