Proton joins anti-Apple lawsuit to force App Store changes
Briefly

Proton has filed a legal complaint against Apple, alleging anticompetitive practices regarding iOS and the App Store. The lawsuit contends that Apple's control stunts competition and harms developers and consumers. Proton seeks a mandate from the US District Court to enable direct access for app developers to customers by allowing alternative app stores and in-app payment systems. This lawsuit aligns with ongoing struggles against Apple's policies, reflecting concerns similar to those raised by Epic Games in prior legal battles. Proton argues that regulations preventing these practices exist in Europe but are insufficiently enforced in the US.
"We believe that Apple's conduct constitutes further violations of US antitrust law."
"Without this case, Apple could get away with behavior in the US that is already outlawed in the European Union."
