Epic Games steps up Apple fight with EU antitrust complaint

Is the walled garden a key differentiator? When most people buy a phone, I think they're usually thinking about the camera and screen, or the security and privacy features. (And note the sandboxing features are part of the phone, not part of the app store.) I'd love to see data on this if you can find any.

I certainly didn't buy an iphone because I want to pay an extra tax whenever I buy apps.

Yes! And you’re being wilfully dishonest by not acknowledging this point, despite me repeating it to you a dozen times.

Well, I did.

Then buy an Android, Jolla, Purism, or who knows an EpicOS Phone.
