> The company decides to leverage the users, tools, and ecosystem of Apple to make money Apple does not own its users. If the legal owner of an iPhone wants to run code from a third-party on it Apple should have no right to interfere. Apple can set its own terms on its SDKs and tools but we should be able to forego them. > I'm referring to taxes. Are Apple's shareholders going to provide people with education and healthcare? What a complete non-sequitur.

In this case, Epic didn't want to pay the app store fees. That's different from what a user wants. This is a ruling on the relationship between the company and Apple, not the user.
