This is non-sense fearmongering.

Giving people the ability to install fortnite, on an official fortnite app store, is not going to cause people to die from phone explosion

It is just not going to happen. Fortnite is not going to blow you up.

The reason why I know this to be the case, is that half the US smartphone market, allows people to side load APKs, and install fortnite that way, and people aren't being blown up because they had fortnite on their phone.

I was referring to "Root access"; not the ability to install Fortnite. There's a difference.

People have the ability to install Fortnite. Do it through the Apple App Store.

They do not have the ability to install it through a competing Epic Games app store.

Allowing people to install fortnite, through an Epic Games app store, that is not approved by Apple, is not going to cause people's phone to blow up.

> not the ability to install Fortnite

In my post, I specifically said "on an official fortnite app store", but it seems like you ignored that for some reason.

That is what I am referring to. If you agree with me, that:

"Giving people the ability to install fortnite, on an official fortnite app store, is not going to cause people to die from phone explosion"

Is the case, then cool. You agree that there is not going to be a blowing up phone problem, if Epic Games, has an app store on people phones, that is run by Epic Games, and not Apple.
