Fortnite komt ergens volgende week terug op de App Store in de Verenigde Staten. Dat heeft Epic Games-baas Tim Sweeney bekend gemaakt op X nadat Apple opnieuw een rechtszaak tegen zijn bedrijf verloren heeft. Niels Kooloos vertelt erover in deze Tech Update. Epic Games en Apple vechten al langer een juridisch geschil uit over de commissies die Apple vraagt over in-appaankopen die buiten de App Store plaatsvinden. Volgens Epic Games is het onterecht dat Apple daar geld voor vraagt. Daar ging de rechter in 2021 al in mee en beveelde Apple toen om daarmee te stoppen, maar Apple heeft daar geen gehoor aan gegeven. Daarom moet het bedrijf nu naar de federale strafrechter.

Epic Games en guerre contre Samsung et Google ?

Epic Games repart à l'assaut juridique, cette fois contre Samsung et Google, accusés de pratiques anticoncurrentielles pour verrouiller le marché des applications mobiles sur les appareils Samsung. La cible principale de cette offensive ? L'Auto Blocker, une fonctionnalité de sécurité introduite par Samsung en octobre 2023, est désormais activée par défaut depuis juillet 2024. Cette fonctionnalité empêche l'installation d'applications en dehors des plateformes Google Play Store et Samsung Galaxy Store, un coup dur pour des acteurs comme Epic qui comptent sur le "sideloading" pour diffuser leurs applications.À l'origine facultatif, l'Auto Blocker visait à renforcer la sécurité en bloquant les menaces comme le phishing. Cependant, sa généralisation n'a pas été du goût d'Epic. Selon la société, il faudrait désormais passer par 21 étapes pour installer une application externe sur un appareil Samsung. Epic estime que ce dispositif favorise Google, compromettant ainsi le verdict d'un procès antérieur où Epic avait remporté une bataille contre la firme de Mountain View. Tim Sweeney, PDG d'Epic Games, n'hésite pas à parler de "collusion" entre Google et Samsung, bien qu'il admette n'avoir aucune preuve directe pour l'instant. Il espère toutefois que des éléments incriminants émergeront au cours de la procédure judiciaire. Google a rapidement réagi, rejetant les accusations et qualifiant cette action de « sans fondement et dangereuse ». Le géant rappelle que les fabricants d'appareils Android sont libres de développer des systèmes de sécurité adaptés à leurs utilisateurs.Samsung, de son côté, a défendu l'Auto Blocker, affirmant que cette option reste désactivable par les utilisateurs à tout moment. Mais pour Epic, ce n'est pas suffisant. La bataille judiciaire s'annonce longue, alors que Samsung a déjà exprimé son intention de contester vigoureusement ces accusations. Hébergé par Acast.

10. Collective Care in the AIDS Crisis with Tim Sweeney

Practical Radicals

Underdogs often respond to systemic oppression through collective care – acts of mutual aid and cooperation with the goal of meeting people's basic survival needs when the state fails to do so. Some people feel collective care is just what we should do as decent human beings, but that it isn't a strategy for systemic social change. Others are more critical, noting that collective care can turn people away from strategies to change systems through organizing and political action. But when we (Stephanie and Deepak) taught our graduate class on Power & Strategy, one of our students, Walter Barrientos, an experienced organizer in the immigrant rights movement, argued that collective care is a strategy that movements have used effectively for centuries around the world. The more we read and discussed the topic, the more we became convinced, and we included collective care as the 7th of our “Seven Strategies to Change the World” in our book, Practical Radicals. In this episode, we look at collective care through the lens of the AIDS crisis and the remarkable work of the Gay Men's Health Crisis (GMHC). Our guest, Tim Sweeney joined and later ran that essential, underappreciated organization during some of the worst years when AIDS ravaged the LGBTQ+ community. After queer communities gained unprecedented visibility in the 1970s and early '80s, AIDS brought despair and decimation. (By 1995, one gay man in nine between the ages of twenty-five and forty-four in the United States had been diagnosed with AIDS, and nearly 7 percent had died. By comparison, COVID-19 has killed 0.3 percent of the U.S. population.) GMHC encouraged gay men and their allies to turn their grief and anger into action to help the sick and dying (with their buddy program), fight bigotry and misinformation (with their hotline and safer sex education projects), and advocate for better policies at every level of government. Although the better-known ACT UP is sometimes seen as a more radical alternative to GMHC, Tim explains that the two organizations actually complemented each other — with the care and community building of GMHC providing a ladder of engagement that helped foster self-confidence and led many to take part in ACT UP's headline-grabbing direct actions. In fact, as we discuss in the book, the first ACT UP meetings were co-facilitated by Tim Sweeney, and GMHC provided financial support to ACT UP at key points. We conclude that collective care done well is a strategy that can make all other strategies, such as base-building and disruption, more effective. When opportunities for systemic change seem to be foreclosed, collective care provides a path for people to achieve tangible change – and often discover new ways to achieve social transformation.
