Apple and Epic Games spar in closing arguments over Fortnite
CNN
A weeks-long blockbuster antitrust trial between Apple and Epic Games culminated on Monday with the maker of the hit video game Fortnite calling Apple an "overlord" and the iPhone maker suggesting Epic is paving the way for a "scary" future for iOS customers.
After spending days presenting reams of dueling economic analysis and documentary evidence, the two sides landed on Monday where they began: arguing over how Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers should interpret Apple's role in a sprawling digital economy. The outcome of that analysis could reshape how digital app stores work or uphold Apple's prime position in its app ecosystem. In a matter of weeks, Gonzalez Rogers is set to decide whether Apple is an agile innovator that reaped just rewards for building a popular app business, or if it is, as Epic alleges, a monopolist that uses its control over the iOS App Store to illegally harm competition, restrict innovation and keep prices high.
