Weird how private emails can just be revealed for all to seeyeah. feels dirty. ..especially because most of this feels pretty not relevant to the case and more just there to try and embarrass or hurt people and companies.
yeah. feels dirty. ..especially because most of this feels pretty not relevant to the case and more just there to try and embarrass or hurt people and companies.It's really cool to see this all but these leaks are crazy. Wonder if anything legal will come from it.

However, proceedings were paused as Epic's lawyers pushed back, saying there was confidential information in the document that Epic's third-party partners didn't want either spoken out loud (where anyone listening on a public line could hear it) or entered into public record.
Apple's lawyer argued back, saying this was the first he'd heard of the issue, and that he just wanted to ask questions about Epic Games' business decisions, prompting Epic to respond that they had "only just been alerted to this issue." It was here that Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers finally lost her patience.

Lawyer cites a deposition saying Microsoft earns annual net revenue of around $6-700 million from Epic. Wright says the number was based on confusion. “Microsoft has a financial incentive to keep Epic happy. Right, Ms. Wright?” “We try and keep all of our developers happy, yes."

The issue is that Microsoft didn’t produce documents it was asked to produce, and court said that would be “factored into the credibility” of related witnesses. I.e. Wright, who says she wasn’t made aware of that. Would she have produced documents if she did? “Probably not."

“If you just stick to my questions you’ll have a chance to say your thing again.” In any case, we’re now back to comparing the locked-down-ness of iOS versus the Xbox, which doesn’t allow competing streaming services, lawyer notes.

Apple's lawyer asks if the cost of manufacturing a console drops over time until selling it at the original price becomes profitable. Wright says the hardware still isn’t profitable — lawyer says if she’d provided the documents he requested, they could have verified it.

Out of context: Wright compares putting an Xbox game on iOS by saying that “it’s like asking Steven Spielberg to go reshoot Jurassic Park.”

"No, we wanted to use the Netflix model,” Wright says, explaining Gamepass subscription to the judge.
