The Coalition for App Fairness

Reuters:

The Coalition for App Fairness, structured as a nonprofit based in Washington, D.C. and Brussels, said it plans to advocate legal changes that would force Apple to change. Beyond Epic, Match and Spotify, other members include smaller firms such as Basecamp, Blix, Blockchain.com, Deezer, and Tile, along with developers from Europe including the European Publishers Council, News Media Europe and Protonmail.

From the Coalition signup page:

The Coalition for App Fairness was created by industry leading companies who want to see freedom of choice for consumers and a level playing field for businesses. This is an open call to all developers, big and small, to join us – and together we will fight back against the monopolist control of the app ecosystem by Apple.

If you are interested in joining the coalition, please fill out the following form, and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

Is there a path for compromise? Will this continue to escalate until something explodes? Is this the hill Apple will defend to the death?

Lines are being drawn, sides being chosen. I hate this whole thing.
