Apple wants 27% commission for Dutch apps using third-party payments

Revenue is first of all not profit, so the revenue in itself cannot compensate the updates.
Secondly, there are more than 2 billion gadgets in use that connect to the App store, therefore clearly the NEW iphone sales cannot support the update for all those units already in use.
You don’t know Apple’s cost structure, you don’t know their profitability requirement, it’s not your business why they want to make money and why they don’t want to sell below costs like other companies until they go bankrupt. They don’t have a chinese government like Huawei has to bail them out or keep them artificially profitable.
Let people who want to use iphones use them and others who are not happy by Android or any other operating system that exists, nobody is stopping them from it.
Apple has as much right to make money and charge for their services as other companies have to do the same, unless you want everything to be free and basically kill any innovation, progress, growth or wealth. Let’s just all be poor and live in a communist country where anybody who has more than a trouser or a shirt is an evil capitalist. -
Snap says upcoming iOS 14 privacy feature presents risk to business
He didn’t say anything bad. That’s his job to warn investors. There is a risk for sure, but they didn’t say it’s a bad thing.
“Unlike Zuckerberg, Snap CEO Spiegel says Apple’s iPhone privacy change is good for consumers
“
You guys are also a bit too arrogant.
By the way, I’m not using Snap but I don’t condemn someone who is using it.
