The case is about who gets what fraction of the microtransactions - Google or Epic (after accounting for the game dev's share).

I get that but what does that have to do with whether devs use microtransactions or not in their games? The kids will be subjected to them whether Epic or Google takes the lion’s share.

I am probably from a different time, before the advent of blogs, where journalists were not half-carpet/half-tongue creatures just reading a script and asking CEOs "what is your favourite playable character?", but this article is just a scandal, there is no question that upsets the CEO, I would bet everything that I have, that if 30 years ago a CEO would be in front of some journalist saying "We want to make the world better", the journalist would have pointed out the ways the CEO's own company makes the world worser
