COMING TO GRIPS WITH APPLE’S SEEMINGLY UNSHAKABLE SENSE OF ENTITLEMENT TO ITS COMMISSIONS FROM THIRD-PARTY IOS APPS

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Apple has introduced a new tax on web purchases that prevents developers from offering digital items more cheaply on the web. Epic will contest this plan in District Court. Apple is demanding commission from web sales that occur within 7 days of a user tapping through to the web from its new External Purchase Links entitlement in an app - services that already sell over the web can continue to do so in exactly the same way. Some critics say Apple shouldn't and legally can't comply with its anti-steering injunction this way, but it looks like the company isn't doing anything contrary to the law.
