#FreeFortnite A Year Later; What Has Happened?

Twelve months on from the shambolic, disgusting, and dangerous PR campaign aimed at children that begun last year, what has come of the Epic Vs. Apple lawsuit? At the time of writing, a lot of dirty laundry has been aired and a large amount of chest-puffing has…
