A federal judge has suggested that Apple may face criminal charges for allegedly ignoring a court injunction in the Epic Games lawsuit. Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers found that Appleâs efforts to comply were disingenuous, citing the introduction of a new 27% commission and other tactics aimed at making alternative payment methods difficult for developers. The judge's strong language signals a serious rebuke for Apple, claiming the company prioritized its billion-dollar revenue stream over court rulings and fair competition. The case underscores ongoing tensions between major platforms and developers seeking fair terms.
Judge Rogers stated that "Apple's response to the injunction strains credulity," indicating her disbelief over Apple's efforts to comply with the court's orders.
The judge highlighted that Apple's actions were intended to "dissuade customer usage of alternative purchase opportunities" to protect its profit margins.
