Last week was not a good day to be part of Apple's legal team. The company was found to violate a 2021 court injunction relating to apps directing users to off-app payment systems. In short, Apple has been told that a) it's not allowed to try and stop developers doing this and b) it can't claim any commission on off-app sales.
Apple said it would abide by the ruling for the immediate future, but would be filing an appeal. True to its word, that appeal has now been filed. However, that's not the only courtroom drama Apple is facing.
