Can we be certain that "more aggressive regulatory enforcement" will continue, as you suggest at the end of the piece?
I understand legal precedent, but Apple has a more consistent history of moving the goalposts than regulators do of holding them to task. I'm viewing this as a one-off win, for now (albeit a big one!).
You had me until "mobile gaming, which generates half of all interactive entertainment revenue, finds itself increasingly throttled by mounting platform fees and skyrocketing marketing costs."
Mobile gaming is a victim because of high marketing costs? I'm not sympathetic. Now I wonder who is paying YOUR costs?

Possibly. But it suggests sentiment is shifting and regulators have found a foothold.
Great one, thanks for this!
