苹果在英国遭遇重大法律挫折，或面临15亿英镑天价赔偿

Core Points - The UK Competition Appeal Tribunal ruled that Apple abused its market dominance from 2015 to 2020 by charging excessive commissions through the App Store, potentially facing up to £1.5 billion in damages [1][3] - The court found that Apple monopolized the iOS app distribution and in-app payment markets, forcing developers to use its payment system and pay commissions as high as 30% [3] - Apple's defense, claiming competition from the Android platform and that its fees were for user safety, was rejected by the court, which noted that these high fees ultimately increased prices for consumers [3] - Apple has announced plans to appeal the ruling, with a damages trial scheduled for November this year [3]
