苹果禁止在出站链接上收取费用

联邦法院禁止苹果在其iOS应用程序之外的链接上收取27％的收取费用，并命令这家技术巨头停止禁止与第三方网站的链接。

A federal court has ordered Apple to stop collecting a 27% fee on links that open in an email, text message, or iMessage outside of its iOS apps and to quit prohibiting app developers from including links to third-party websites. The prohibitions are part of Epic Games' case against Apple for limiting its app on the American market.

联邦法院已下令苹果停止在其iOS应用程序之外的电子邮件，短信或iMessage中打开的链接收取27％的费用，并辞去禁止应用程序开发人员在第三方网站上的链接。这些禁令是针对苹果公司将其应用程序限制在美国市场上的史诗游戏案的一部分。

The US District Judge, in an order on Thursday, stated that Apple willfully ignored the court injunction of 2021. The tech giant used its dominant app market share to limit crypto apps from making money. The new prohibitions may enable crypto developers to engage in a fairer market.

美国地方法院法官在周四的命令中说，苹果故意忽略了2021年的法院禁令。这家技术巨头利用其主要的应用程序市场份额限制了加密应用程序赚钱。新的禁令可能使加密开发人员能够参与更公平的市场。

The court argued that Apple engaged in anticompetitive pricing practices, and despite being ordered to cease what they were doing in 2021, continued to defy the court’s order. The court concludes that Apple has continued interfering with competitive practices and further damaged other businesses, such as crypto startups. Apple was interfering with app developers' ability to communicate with customers and was further charging fees for services that were on third-party websites. The court further stated that there was no going back on defying a court order and that Apple needed to cease what they were doing immediately.

法院辩称，苹果从事反竞争定价惯例，尽管被命令停止在2021年所做的事情，但仍继续违反法院的命令。法院得出的结论是，苹果继续干预竞争实践，并进一步损害了其他业务，例如加密初创公司。苹果正在干预应用程序开发人员与客户沟通的能力，并正在为第三方网站上的服务收取更多费用。法院进一步指出，没有违反法院命令的重新辩护，苹果需要停止他们立即做的事情。

Crypto apps will benefit from the court ruling because they can experiment more freely with different business models without suffering draconian Apple fees. Due to these changes, a great crypto bull run may occur. Regardless of whether developers prefer Android to iOS, a large market share of Apple-supported apps exists.

加密应用程序将从法院的裁决中受益，因为他们可以在不遭受严厉的苹果费用的情况下更自由地尝试不同的商业模式。由于这些变化，可能会发生巨大的加密公牛运行。无论开发人员是否更喜欢Android而不是iOS，都存在大量的苹果支持应用程序的市场份额。

Apple actively impeded the growth of crypto apps, therefore bottling up a great amount of potential that may very well be released now. Such anticompetitive practices hampered NFT markets because they often include various monetary practices outside of an app. Things were so bad for Apple users that they could only browse NFTs on their phones and would have to find other means to buy their favourite non-fungible tokens.

苹果公司积极阻碍了加密应用程序的增长，因此瓶装了很大的潜力，现在很可能会发布。这种反竞争性实践阻碍了NFT市场，因为它们通常包括应用程序之外的各种货币实践。对于Apple用户来说，情况是如此糟糕，以至于他们只能在手机上浏览NFT，并且必须找到其他手段来购买他们喜欢的无牙代币。

The court has reiterated its previous judgment that Apple should not engage in anticompetitive practices, such as issuing fees for consumer purchases outside of the apps. The ruling also disallows Apple from monitoring developers' purchases or requiring them to report their dealings with clients outside of the app. Apple is also disallowed from restricting link usage for particular categories. Apple has since changed many of its guidelines and seems to be irritated by the court meddling in its affairs.

法院重申了以前的判决，即苹果不应从事反竞争做法，例如在应用程序之外购买消费者购买费用。该裁决还不允许苹果监视开发人员的购买或要求他们与应用程序外的客户报告。苹果也不允许限制特定类别的链接使用情况。从那以后，苹果改变了许多准则，似乎在其事务中干预法院感到恼火。

Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney said the ruling was a huge developer victory. Sweeney pointed out that developers can now use their payment service alongside Apple's app. This is a massive bonus for crypto companies wishing to provide iOS services without paying Apple a fee. Customers will also benefit, according to Sweeney, because the savings will be passed on to consumers. Sweeney concludes that Apple must compete in the market like everyone else. Crypto services should also get a fair go regarding payment services. Apple shouldn’t be allowed to create a business simply by blocking other competing companies. Sweeney also pointed out that competition is good for business because the best product will get the customers, while the less-than-great product will lose customers.

Epic Games首席执行官蒂姆·斯威尼（Tim Sweeney）表示，该裁决是巨大的开发商胜利。 Sweeney指出，开发人员现在可以与Apple的应用一起使用其付款服务。对于希望提供iOS服务而无需支付费用的加密公司来说，这是一个巨大的奖励。根据Sweeney的说法，客户还将受益，因为节省将转移给消费者。斯威尼得出结论，苹果必须像其他所有人一样在市场上竞争。加密服务还应该获得有关付款服务的公平选择。不应仅通过阻止其他竞争公司来创建苹果。 Sweeney还指出，竞争对业务有益，因为最好的产品将吸引客户，而不太差的产品将失去客户。
