The developers of video game sensation Fortnite violated their contract with Google, making a case that the tech giant has a monopoly on the mobile gaming marketplace. Watch as corporate attorney Arianna Mendez tears down the Google Play Developer Distribution Agreement and explains how Epic Games is using litigation to bring about economic and social change. Considering that until recently, Fortnite fans couldn’t play on their mobile devices due the ongoing lawsuit, and the Google case is still pending, the stakes are high.
