Abstract generation in progress

Apple has adjusted its App Store policies in Japan, allowing third-party payments to comply with new competition laws. However, critics and developers argue these changes are largely superficial due to ongoing commissions and technical hurdles, making the alternative economically unviable for many. This move comes amid increasing global regulatory scrutiny of Apple’s App Store practices, with many claiming it merely repackages existing monopolistic controls rather than dismantling them.
