Basically Epic weren’t happy with the 30% cut that Apple and Google take from app sales and in-app purchases so they introduced a direct payment method which bypassed Apple and Google’s payment methods, but was in violation of their app store rules. In response both Apple and Google removed Fortnite from the app store. Fortnite remained playable on Android because of sideloading but was unplayable on iOS (I’m not even sure if it’s back yet)
In response Epic sued both companies claiming they held an illegal monopoly. Somehow Apple won and Google lost

Oh I do recall that now that you mention it. But I wasn’t aware that they lost to Apple. That sounds ridiculous, isn’t it the same thing?!
