- JimDabell 1y agoIt’s also a grab at Grab, who just announced their mini apps a couple of weeks ago: https://www.grab.com/sg/press/others/grab-launches-third-party-partner-apps-within-grab-app-offering-more-everyday-services-for-everyday-needs/ https://www.grab.com/sg/press/others/grab-launches-third-par...
- nandomrumber 1y agoShouldn’t we presume that Grab was aware of any upcoming changes. I think they call it commercial in confidence. Grab would have voluntarily entered in to an agreement with Apple. Are we ok with companies reaching an agreement to do business together on terms of their mutual agreement still?
- Aperocky 1y agoApparently, the apps in wechat aren't transacted via Apple today anyways, maybe some will choose to do so via apple but I can't imagine to be the majority. I also think wechat have the upper hand in this relationship so Apple is unlikely to be able to do any real forcing function.
- nandomrumber 1y agoPresumably Tencent voluntarily entered in to a contract with Apple. What’s this forced business?
