A lot has changed since those early days of personal computing who could forget the famous Apple 1984 advert where the underdog (Apple) thought back at the unfair business practices being deployed by big business.
Well depending on your standpoint it would seem that the underdogs have now become those big businesses using their power and influence to rule of the new underdogs. It reminds me of another novel by the 1984 author George Orwell, Animal Farm!
Apple has blocked Fortnite from the App Store, removing everyone’s ability to install and update the game on iOS devices, while instructing Epic to “remove the ‘Epic direct payment’ feature”. Apple is keeping prices high so they can collect 30% of your payments, and is blocking Fortnite in order to prevent Epic from passing on the savings from direct payments to you!

Epic Games has defied the App Store Monopoly. In retaliation, Apple is blocking Fortnite from a billion devices. Visit freefortnite and join the fight to stop 2020 from becoming “1984”. Epic has taken legal action to end Apple’s anti-competitive restrictions on mobile device marketplaces. The papers are available here.
Fortnite remains available on Google Play, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC, Mac, GeForce Now, and the Epic Games app on Android. Your account, progression, and purchases also remain available on these platforms.
Because Apple has BLOCKED your ability to update, when Fortnite Chapter 2 – Season 4 releases you will NOT be able to play the new Season on iOS. Make your voice heard with Free Fortnite
