It took more than four years, but Epic Games finally prevailed this week in its antitrust case against Apple, the world’s most valuable company with a market value of $3.2 trillion. And now it’s possible that the floodgates are open to bring competition and financial gains for mobile game companies on iOS.Epic CEO Tim Sweeney and his lawyers argued that Apple was a bully that was striking fear in the hearts of mobile game makers by punishing Epic in forcing Fortnite off the App Store. It also accused Apple of “malicious compliance” as the iPhone maker resisted regulatory measures in the European Union. For the most part, Apple was successful in blocking Epic Games in court and delaying the one favorable ruling that Epic got.But that changed this week as U.S. District Court judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers held that Apple failed to comply with her ruling in 2021 and so it was in contempt of court for “willful violation” of her ruling, which found Apple blameless on nine of 10 big antitrust allegations. This ruling involves the one that Epic won — an order saying it was not OK for Apple to prohibit game makers from steering users to off-store websites for item purchases at lower prices

Rapper Heather “Razzlekhan” Morgan is back and dropping the first of two new singles ahead of serving 18 months in prison for her role in an infamous, multi-billion-dollar Bitcoin heist.The notorious entrepreneur and musician teased the new single and music video in recent days. Released Friday, Morgan described her new track “Razzlekhan vs. The United States” in a statement as a "misfits' anthem."Morgan further said that the song is based on her experiences during the case that stemmed from her arrest in 2022 all the way through to her conviction and sentencing for money laundering last year.Featuring Morgan in bondage gear, the video has “hidden messages and social commentary” throughout, she told Decrypt in an interview.“I don’t want to spell out everything since I intentionally left a lot of hidden messages to be deciphered,” Morgan said.“A core theme is that there’s a struggle between normies and people who refuse to conform, like me,” she continued. “I want my misfit 'Razzlers' to know that they’re not alone, and that we are stronger together.”“Razzlekhan vs. The United States” was released via Morgan’s Razzlekhan YouTube channel, coinciding with the song being released on streaming music services. A second song, “Diplomat Pussy,” is expected to drop on January 24.In November, Morgan was sentenced to 18 months in federal prison for money laundering, while her husband Ilya "Dutch" Lichtenstein received five years for orchestrating the Bitfinex hack
