There has been a debate in the tech industry once again. Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeny has once again lashed out at Apple and Google. Describing these two tech veterans as ‘gangster companies’, he has strongly criticized their app distribution and payment system to keep the payment system completely.
Tim Sweeny has been vocal against these two companies continuously for the last few years and this time he has raised the same old but important issues – 30 percent commission, limited options and ban on the freedom of developers.
Questions raised on the policies of Apple and Google
Tim Sweeny says that Apple and Google policies are suppressing innovation and competition.
-
These companies force developers to use only their app store and payment system.
-
30% commission on in-app purchases affects the income of developers, so that they are unable to improve and invest their products.
-
Sweeni sees it as a ‘heavy tax’ imposed on developers.
Business is doing business in “gangster style”
Speaking at a tech event, Tim Sweeni said: “Sadly, Apple and Google are no longer in honest companies that can be trusted. She is now doing business in gangster style and only thinks about her benefits.”
He also said that these companies do not mind the fine, as they also consider it a part of the business. “If they feel that the profits from an illegal work are more than the penalty, then they continue the same work and only pay the fine.”
“Crime” – serious allegations against big tech companies
Tim Sweeny believes that at present, wrong for big tech companies has become a beneficial deal. “Unless these companies are strict laws and effective action, they will continue to misuse their monopoly.”
