I don't believe they would be able to do that - you don't draw to the screen using POSIX.

No, but you do draw to the screen by reverse engineering whatever os level graphics api is available and using it, and at a 30% cut on every app here there is literally billions of dollars of funding available to do that.

I imagine if Apple tried to restrict third party apps from doing that through the legal system, we would see another suit but this time about "graphics" instead of "payment processing".
