I’m not defending Apple or Google, but aren’t they for-profit companies giving developers an opportunity to sell their items? What’s next, tou manufacturers will sue Walmart when they won’t sell their products? What am I missing here?
Apple spent billions, trillions? developing their products. They should have a say in what is able to be on them, in my opinion.
@David G: “…They should have a say…”
.
“a say” or absolute control?
.
Slashdot carried this story: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-09-25/google-to-increase-push-for-apps-to-give-cut-of-in-app-purchases
.
Does this mean traditional “copper” telcos should be entitled to a cut of any business transactions which take place via their existence?
.
Perhaps instead of allowing a handful of companies forming oligopolies to have absolute power it might be interesting to go with the Huey, Dewie, and Louie concept Bork had when it came to Microsoft many years ago: create three companies, give each equal copies of the resources, and allow them to determine whether they should decide whether to start out as clones of each other or to focus on a subset. Microsoft saw the light when it comes to benevolence as a company and is going the route of open source. Now it’s just a matter of everyone being in a “hurry up and wait” mode while they OS things in a trickle instead of a fire hose.
