This naively assumes an iOS user is on Apple's side, and assumes that the court of public opinion excludes those users with neither iOS nor Fortnite yet have general opinions and business-stake on iOS options.
I should also note that, for some of us, the court of public opinion and the court of legal opinion are different. I can disagree w/ Apple and disagree w/ their practices being deemed illegal.
- sircastor 6y agoI think most iOS users don't actually care, but they know that they get their phones from Apple, and some game company is trying to mess something up. I agree that the legal and the PR plays are separate, but if Epic were just trying to handle the legal issue, they wouldn't be making as big of a deal out of it. They're expecting to get something else from this.
