This Monday, May 3 opens the trial of Epic Games, the publisher of the Fortnite game against the giant Apple.

For three weeks, Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers will have to decide whether Apple's conditions are abusive and distort competition in the field of telephone applications.

Epic Games is not alone in denouncing this monopoly, and together with a dozen other tech groups form the “coalition for equity in application”.

Explanations from Julien Pillot, professor-researcher in economics and strategy at the INSEEC School of Business and Economics, expert in GAFAM strategies.
