Pavel Durov backs Epic Games' victory against Apple's fees

Pavel Durov, founder of Telegram, has publicly applauded Tim Sweeney of Epic Games following a recent outcome that challenges Apple's longstanding 30 percent fee policy.
In a tweet directed at Sweeney, Durov refers to the development as an ''epic victory,'' celebrating a new chapter in the US digital market free from the restrictions imposed by Apple's platform. Epic Games, known for its popular Fortnite game, had engaged in a legal battle against Apple over its high fees, arguing that they stifle innovation.
Durov expressed his support and extended the backing of Telegram's vast user base, claiming the support of ''1 billion users'' for the ongoing endeavor to bring similar changes globally. The case could set a precedent, encouraging other developers to challenge platform fee structures worldwide.
