What’s wrong Apple? Afraid of some actual competition?

Idk, man. Epic very well could have come up with an app so bad that it became a serious vulnerability for the Apple App Store. This could be about the money. It could be about some Apple Engineers making a couple of airbooks live up to their names, trying to plug all the wholes the shitty Epic DRM was creating. Could be both.

Get out of here with this whataboutism.

As far as companies go, Apple is the one being slowly brought back under the law of a free market, after doing gray / illegal stuff for decades.

Get out of here with this whataboutism.

Epic's DRM patches routinely break games and open up security vulnerabilities. This isn't even something new, its been a problem with the company for decades.
