Adding to this from a pure policy perspective - we *know* there are huge numbers of people, especially lower-income people, where a phone is their only computing device. How does that change your view? 1000 words by Monday please — PolitiTweet.org

Also "why did you sue us and not Microsoft or Sony" is one of those arguments that's like... well, who's to say they won't sue them next? — PolitiTweet.org

Apple's insistence on comparing the iPhone to game consoles at trial is also really interesting -- do they *want* the iPhone to be considered a console-like device, or a general purpose computer? What about the iPad? This is seriously like a Vergecast with millions at stake heh — PolitiTweet.org

I understand the optics of this tactic but it’s also like… irrelevant? — PolitiTweet.org

This is the second cross-examination where Apple has made a point of trying to establish that a third-party witness is on Epic’s side.

@daveywallie I think that’s why Epic keeps bringing up lock in and switching costs - the only way to keep Apple honest in that scenario is if you can realistically pick another overlord if they screw up — PolitiTweet.org

@bergmayer Honestly I think "be less controlling about biz models IN the App Store" would be enough, but they are not backing off that I don't think — PolitiTweet.org

The antitrust trial once again circles back to web apps not being competitive to native apps on iOS. I wonder if Epic is planning to bring up the specific ways Apple has limited mobile Safari to keep web apps from being first class citizens on the platform — PolitiTweet.org

Apple’s doing a good job of poking holes in the Epic case, but it feels like Epic is doing an equally good job showing how much control Apple has over every app on the store. @thedextriarchy recaps day 2: https://t.co/9FKdMWaPKv — PolitiTweet.org
