Zuckerberg is quite upset about Apple's latest decisions. Some will think that Apple must be doing very well, if the king of indiscretion is angry. However, it is not as it seems. Zuckerberg has criticized some decisions made not only against Facebook, has also mentioned the vetoes to Microsoft and Epic Games.
Facebook has always been characterized by controversy in all its user interactions with the program. There has been talk of the lack of privacy of the same and of the tracing that the program makes of its users. In fact, one of the issues that Zuckerberg has complained about the most, has been the iOS 14 privacy modifications. The Facebook CEO has mentioned that now it is more difficult to track users. Good for Apple and privacy.
Apple has also blocked facebook plans to add a "transparency notice" advising users that Apple would receive a 30% cut from in-app purchases made through the Facebook app.
But he has also talked about crashes that Microsoft have suffered with xCloud and Epic Games with Fortnite. He has warned that the rules of the App Store do not allow third-party applications to distribute games as an independent platform, it is generating a bottleneck that is allowing Apple to block innovation and collect monopoly rents.
Last Thursday Zuckerberg spoke to all company employees in these terms:
Apple has this bottleneck, and the Cupertino app store, by default it blocks innovation, blocks competition, and allows Apple to collect monopoly rents. That's the innovation that could really improve people's lives.
Of course, Apple he is making strong enemies that if at some point they join forces they can put the company in a bind.
