Timmy from Apple could ban lootboxes if he cares, instead he is taxing them and makes ton of cache(it was revealed that Apple makes a lot more money from games then from apps)
Fortnite doesn't have lootboxes.
I had to look it up myself because I didn't believe you, but it really does appear to be the case that Fortnite doesn't have random loot boxes and they removed them from Rocket League after purchasing that game.
A lawsuit helped them get there, but sweeney's gone on the record to state that random lootboxes should not be a thing. So... net good?
