Epic Games in Thursday claimed that Apple “blocked” its latest Fortnite app submission so that it can’t be released in the U.S. or on the third-party Epic Games Store in the EU.
An Apple spokesperson responded later on Friday, saying that the company “did not take any action to remove the live version of Fortnite from alternative distribution marketplaces” in the EU. Mark Gurman for Bloomberg News:

That is illogical, unfair, and, basically, theft. – MacDailyNews, May 4, 2021 How much did it cost developers to have their apps burned onto CDs, boxed, shipped, displayed on store shelves prior to Apple remaking the world for the better for umpteenth time? Apple incurs costs to store, review, organize, surface, and distribute apps to over one billion users. — MacDailyNews, June 10, 2022 Support MacDailyNews at no extra cost to you by using this link to shop at Amazon.
