Why Epic lost the Apple case and won against Google
After a legal battle, the jury ruled in favor of Epic Games in the Epic vs Google case, stating that Google's app store and billing service constituted an illegal monopoly. The jury unanimously agreed that Google has a monopoly in Android app distribution and in-app billing services, and engaged in anti-competitive practices. Epic's fight against Apple over a similar issue resulted in a loss. The court highlighted secret revenue-sharing deals between Google, smartphone makers like Samsung, and big game developers. Apple, on the other hand, was not implicated in these deals due to its exclusive use of iOS.
