I mean that's not wrong. I had no idea Apple was double-dipping like this. I wonder if Google is doing the same thing...
Every store does this. Even Holy Valve
What? Since when does Valve prohibit companies from redirecting customers to non-Valve purchasing flows? Because that's what this ruling is about, it says Apple can't prohibit apps from telling users to go buy off-platform for lower prices. Valve isn't doing that with Steam afaik, actually I'm not aware of any other platform that does this
Any of the video game console companies.
