Epic direct payment on mobile
Probably pushing it intentionally given the recent antitrust discussions. Worst case for them, they get banned from the store for a bit until they take that option down.

Sadly, it's gonna take a while before actual legislation is enacted.
If Fortnite gets banned, they'll stay that way for a long time unless they remove direct payment.

I'd assume that the move would be to take the option out then file an anti-trust suit.

Even if that happens Epic still wins. Customers will no longer get their discount and will blame Apple for it.
