How is epic having an app that can be used to get offensive content different from the Apple App Store allowing web browsers?

Reddit has some explicit content. How on earth is this relevant to the question of abusing a dominant market position which is what case is about. Is Apple arguing we can commercially abuse our partners and customers because we save you from porn? Seriously?

I assume their argument here is “It’s expensive to run an App Store that screens content effectively - here is an example where a cheaper store missed something.” This specific example doesn’t seem like strong evidence though.

I don't think they are saying itch missed something (itch certainly doesn't think so)

Apple is saying that Epic missed that Itch allows offensive content via the Epic store (indirectly).

I’m fairly certain Epic missed nothing about that, and just didn’t care one way or the other.

Understatement of the millenium there.

I know right?? Some? Some? Oh my god ...

Epic's lawyers just need to bring up the reddit app to counter this whole line of attack. Lowest hanging fruit ever.
