Epic Games is suing Google and Samsung, accusing them of colluding to block third-party competition in app distribution on Samsung devices. The lawsuit focuses on Samsung’s “Auto Blocker” feature, which limits app installations to authorized sources like the Google Play Store and Samsung Galaxy Store. Epic argues that this feature reinforces Google’s dominance in Android app distribution. Samsung defends Auto Blocker as a security measure and emphasizes that users can disable it. Epic claims the feature complicates downloading third-party apps and undermines competition. This is Epic’s second antitrust lawsuit against Google.
