In the wake of the spat between Ilon Musk and Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), the voice of Meta (NASDAQ:META)* CEO Mark Zuckerberg has been heard, speaking at the New York Times DealBook Summit, speaking harshly about the Cupertino-based company and how it controls its app store.

“Apple has distinguished itself as the only company that tries to unilaterally control what apps can be installed on a mobile device,” he said, adding, “I don’t think that’s a sustainable or positive attitude.

According to the Facebook founder, Apple should take an example from Google (NASDAQ:GOOGL), which, unlike Tim Cook, “has always allowed other app stores and worked directly with phone manufacturers.”

Zuckerberg’s criticism didn’t just come out of nowhere, but stems from the iPhone maker’s decision to update its privacy terms in 2021, making it much harder for Meta and other apps to target ads to users, and partly responsible for Meta’s steep decline in ad revenue in recent quarters.

Zuckerberg, referring to Musk and his company Twitter (NYSE:TWTR), said that “it will be very interesting to see how this evolves in terms of approach, and while not everything will work smoothly, I think some things can work.”

As a reminder, the tense relationship between Musk and Apple began a few days ago when the Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) founder accused Apple of threatening to remove Twitter from the App Store, writing in a tweet that he would rather “go to war” than pay Apple a 30 percent commission for the platform.

Things were then cleared up when Musk made it clear that he met with Apple CEO Tim Cook, with whom Musk said the misunderstanding over Twitter’s possible removal was settled. “Tim made it clear: Apple never thought of this,” Musk himself wrote on the social network he recently acquired.

In addition to Meta, the “chorus of Apple opponents” can count on another important technology platform. The CEO of Spotify Technology (NYSE:SPOT) wrote in a tweet that Apple is “giving itself every advantage” and at the same time “stifling innovation while harming consumers.”

Recall that Spotify’s history of confrontation with Apple is longstanding, as the music platform has filed several antitrust complaints against Apple in various countries, claiming that the 30% fee for its presence in the App Store forces Spotify to “artificially inflate prices.”

According to Reuters, Apple has previously stated that “the 30 percent discount on App Store purchases is used to protect consumers in areas such as fraud and privacy.”
