A coalition against “Apple” … for “fair” applications

About a dozen companies, including Spotify and Deezer, formed an alliance against “Apple” accusing it of exploiting its important site on its platform to download mobile applications, according to a statement published Thursday in Brussels and Washington. The companies said that “the gatekeepers who operate the app stores should not exploit their control capacity.”

The coalition also includes Match Group, which owns the dating app “Tinder,” and “Epic Games,” the developer of the video game “Fortnite,” which is already waging a widely publicized legal battle against “Apple” on the same issue.
The allied companies under the banner of The Coalition for App Fairness, added that Apple and other platforms “agree to be subject to supervision to ensure that their behavior encourages competition in the market and that they offer consumers a fair choice.”
These companies seek to develop legislation that regulates the work of electronic application stores, confronting mobile platform operators, especially Apple (through its iOS) and Google (through Android), as opponent and arbitrator in any dispute , accusing her of crushing the competition.
