    It is actually pretty surprising that the play store is the one getting the antitrust. You’d think Apple would’ve been an easier case.

        No, Apple won on some technicalities.

        1. They don’t have a major market share globally (despite their larger market share in the US).
        2. Epic’s case was focused on games, which don’t make up the majority of revenue for the App Store, apparently

            How does this have anything to do with market share anyway?

            Are you serious or are you just trolling? This is an anti trust lawsuit. The definition of antitrust is preventing abuse of monopolies. And the definition of a monopoly is “controlling most or all of the market share” or something.
