Being Epic, of course there's an example already: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-08-12-epic-games-hit...

> The law firm reported that Epic was notified about the security issue back in November 2018, but didn't acknowledge the problem until two months later.

> The data breach occurred back in January this year, when hackers found a flaw in Fortnite's login system, allowing them to impersonate players and purchase V-Bucks with the bank information attached to their accounts.

Epic is truly not a company you want to be supporting in this. I am not an Apple fan (I have a phone from all major mobile OSes), but Epic is truly abhorrent and stands for everything you do not want sticking their fingers into everything.

They've refused to pay out newly-introduced bug bounties over mass hijackings of their subdomains, do sketchy spyware-like stuff with their software running on your machine, collect data without consent, etc. Even if you hate Apple's stance on IAP, this is absolutely not a big guy vs little guy fight.
