A bit hypocritical given you’ve been the one using “coincidence” as a source. What I’m trying to tell you is there is not any documented proof for what you are saying - fuck, maybe you’re right. But you can’t go around spouting “facts” because you find the timing too coincidental. There has been no mention of Epic Games in any court documentation regarding Apple’s violation of DMA.
For what it’s worth - I think I agree with you. But your message rambles on and never makes a concise point. That’s most likely why the downvotes. You can always ask a LLM to tidy it up for you next time.
Yes but here’s the thing. I bought my iPhone because it’s damn simple. I don’t like spending time on my phone, simple is efficient. I’m envisioning a future where I have a folder full wallet apps because every debit/credit card institution creates their own. All circumventing the privacy restrictions Apple forces on their AppStore. Truly the consumer has lost in this situation. If I didn’t want to use the AppStore - I would have bought a different phone.
Is someone well versed enough in law to explain why Activision can do this? If the mod requires the software to be purchased and only uses resources present in the owned game - wouldn’t that be fair to use, so long as it’s not sold? Or is this just a case of Activision has the big stick and a small dev team knows they have no shot in fighting Activision’s lawyers without going broke?
