Apple to appeal Epic Games ruling

The escalation marks the second time the warring factions have sought a final decision from the nation's highest court.

Apple argues that the current restrictions on its business model are 'illegal and burdensome,' while Epic Games contends the company maintains a monopoly over mobile software distribution.

Meanwhile, Apple is also facing a new class-action lawsuit from YouTubers who accuse the company of illegally scraping their content to train AI models.

The outcome of these cases could fundamentally reshape the economics of the global app market and AI development.
