Elon Musk's Mission: Convincing Tim Cook to Lower Apple's 'Hidden Tax'
TL;DR
Elon Musk plans to personally speak with Apple CEO Tim Cook to discuss reducing the 30% "hidden tax" that Apple charges app developers on the App Store. Musk wants to maximize what creators receive and incentivize content creators on his social media platform, X, to charge users for subscriptions. He urges users to support creators and subscribe to their content. This is not the first time Musk has criticized Apple's fees, and other tech executives, such as Mark Zuckerberg, have also voiced concerns about the 30% fee. Apple is currently under investigation by the Department of Justice for its App Store policies.
