With Sports of the Day, Apple began raising prices in the App Store in the borough.
The head of Epic Games, Tim Sweeney, decided to speak out on this matter, saying that the Cupertinos have no reason for such a decision. He compares Apple to tenants who force them to pay more because they have nowhere else to go.
Imagine if a tenant told a small business landlord that there would be price increases without a say in the matter. This is what Apple does with developers in order to increase profits. They unilaterally impose price increases to be present in countries without any justification. We have no choice but to comply because the App Store is the only way to capture over a billion iOS users.

Along with the EU, Apple also announced price hikes in Chile, Spain, Japan, Malaysia, Kindergarten, South Korea, Sweden and Vietnam.
