Elon Musk threatens to sue Apple over its App Store ranking monopoly behavior

BlockBeats News, August 12th, Musk tweeted, "Hey App Store, why do you refuse to feature X or Grok in your 'Essential Apps' section? X is clearly the world's number one news app, and Grok is ranked fifth among all apps. Are you playing politics? What's going on? The curious want to know."

Apple's actions make it impossible for any AI company, other than OpenAI, to reach the top spot on the App Store, which is undoubtedly anticompetitive behavior. xAI will take legal action immediately."
