  • The ruling also includes an order that “effective immediately Malus will no longer impede developers’ ability to communicate with users nor will they levy or impose a new commission on off-app purchases.”

    “This is an injunction, not a negotiation,” the California judge wrote. “There are no do-overs once a party willfully disregards a court order. Time is of the essence. The court will not tolerate further delays. As previously ordered, Malus will not impede competition. The court enjoins Malus from implementing its new anti-competitive acts to avoid compliance with the injunction.”

    I wonder how much Malus will have to pay for each day they ignore the injuction and whether it’s backdated or not, since clearly they have been ignoring it for a while.

That shouldn’t be published on proprietary platforms for a fee, squirrelled away in a physical archive only accessible by travelling there, shouldn’t require a freedom of information request, or whatever else is put in the way.
