#ICYMI: Epic Games filed a lawsuit against @Apple claiming that Apple is abusing its market position to extract money unfairly from apps (and by extension, from consumers)
They publicly announced their lawsuit yesterday with this video; a remake of Apple’s iconic “1984" ad.

The ad aired nationally once, during the 1984 Superbowl; announcing @Apple’s new Macintosh computer.
What was innovative about the ad was the portrayal that “big brother” controlled the representation of tech.
Some believe this was a message to @IBM.

Most memorable in that commercial was the woman hurling her hammer into the screen, symbolizing @Apple’s disruption of the “powers that be” in tech.
If we fast forward to today; Apple is now perceived as “big brother” and @FortniteGame is trolling them.

Para quien no sepa qué sucede, os explico la bonita historia de por qué #freefortnite es trending topic. Acalarar que no me cae bien ningún bando, pero os cuento la verdad a los fanboys de Epic y Fortnite .... Abro hilo
En Apple Store, cuando publicas una app, aceptas los términos y condiciones de servicio, que incluyen, que las compras que hagas dentro de una app, deben pasar por el sistema de pago de la plataforma. En este caso, Apple, se lleva, creo recordar, que un 30% de cada transacción 👇
Apple se hace cargo de alojamiento, distribución, promoción etc..etc... A ésto, hay que sumar, que en iOS no puedes instalar nada si no pasas por su store. Dicho ésto, podríamos debatir hasta qué punto esto mola o no etc..etc... pero es lo que hay, es como funciona... (sigo)
