Apple requests anti-steering injunction in Epic case be tossed given new precedent


Another major twist has occurred in the Epic vs Apple case that may end with everything getting thrown out thanks to new precedents and a lack of evidence from Epic.

The Murthy vs Missouri case has to do with plaintiffs claiming the Biden administration pressured social media companies to control misinformation during the COVID-19 pandemic. This all means that Apple could reestablish its anti-steering rules in the App Store Guidelines — unless it is dealing with Epic Games. Apple seems to make a credible case for changing or removing the injunction, but it all depends on what the court decides.
