A bill in North Dakota that could have caused some trouble for Apple and Google — and resulted in big changes for app developers — was voted down on Tuesday. The legislation, known SB 2333, failed by a vote of 11 to 36 in the state Senate. The bill would have prevented Apple and Google from requiring app developers to use their respective app stores and removed some requirements around in-app purchases. While North Dakota isn’t often the center of tech intrigue, the bill appears to be the latest volley in an ongoing battle between Apple and Fortnite publisher Epic Games.
