We are not in 2001 anymore. App Stores are a growing part of the real economy and Apple 30% makes no sense. Big tech has been under the radar of many because it started small and had little impact on the economy. To let tech companies grow revolutionized the world. That revolution is over, tech companies are the new car companies. Apple is not a new innovative company, it is a monopoly that churns the same product year after year and profits from its dominance and the natural tendency of technology to create monopolies.

Many businesses cannot survive if you cut 10% of their income. 30% is mind-blowing and unsustainable.

I hope that the popularity of Epic brand helps on this fight. This level of legal battle is not only won in the court, but also in the public discussion domain.
