Epic v. Google: everything we learned in Fortnite court
See all Stories
Judge Donato tells Android boss Sameer Samat that he already understands Google prefers the new proposed settlement to his injunction partly because it would settle litigation around the world. (Samat said he thinks international regulators may take their cues from the settlement too, because they see Epic as an advocate.) But he wants to know Google’s other motivations.
“By my reading of the deal, you are getting a lot, everything from hundreds of millions of payments over six years from one partnership, to Epic who said Google was a fake platform now championing the Android ecosystem [..] you’re getting a big present from Epic, so what are you doing for Epic?”
“Is there anything aside from buying peace globally?”
