Millions of UK Apple users could get pay-out after court ruling
A UK court has ruled in favor of 36 million iPhone and iPad users in a collective legal action against Apple, stating they overcharged users with excessive fees on app sales and in-app purchases. The ruling could lead to Apple paying up to £1.5bn in damages. While Apple plans to appeal, the decision is seen as a landmark victory against tech giants and sends a message that no company is above the law, potentially leading to changes in Apple's closed system for app downloads on iPhones in the UK.
