> Both Apple and Google are fully within their rights to charge whatever they want
They are within their right to charge what they want. But it is anti-competitive for them to use significant market power to leverage themselves in other markets.
The lawsuit is not about the 30% cut. Instead, the anti-competitive behavior is that Apple prevent competing Apple stores using its significant market power.
