If two super rich asshats can't find a single lawyer that can build a convincing case against Apples highway robbery that is it's claiming the rights to 30% of any revenue that passes through an app, then just wait until the other big tech companies do the same try and implement that kind of business model in their online "services."
I've seen this viewpoint before. It has some merit. Imagine if Microsoft tried impose a 30% fee on anything purchased on a web site while using Windows. Roughly the same thing. Would be interesting to see a court battle over that...

Mental Illness gets worst with age. Personally I just associated all this stupidly to his most recent wife leaving him.
No idea how many wives he's had but think he's got around 10 kids. Probably like walker, never sees them.

Perhaps Elon should have confirmed that with Apple before ranting about them on Twitter. It's astonishing how unprofessional Elon acts. Apple should pull the app from their store just to spite him.

Because it was never about being removed from the store to Elon. He knew that wasn't going to happen.
It was about the 30%. If all he did was whine about the Apple tax, it would just be another tech company doing that. But if he made it about a culture war, suddenly this was reported on Fox News hourly.
