Amicus briefs show strong support of Apple's arguments ahead of Epic Supreme Court judgement
The Apple vs Epic lawsuit has been ongoing for over six years. It started as an intentional violation of Apple's App Store rules, which led to the lawsuit and almost total victory for Apple on all but one charge. Apple was ordered to remove its anti-steering practices, which it did, but was found in violation of the injunction due to not following the spirit of the injunction.
