    It’s not an apology. It’s corporate doublespeak.

    The exec team, who caused this whole thing, isn’t changing. They will try something similar at some point in the future.

    Also, this “apology” entirely omits the scummy and anticompetitive (and potentially illegal in some jurisdictions) fee vouchers they were using to try to steal AppLovin’s customers, as well as the silent and sneaky update they made to their license in the interest of enabling this whole thing.

    This is ass-covering and damage control. It is not an apology, regardless of whether or not apologetic words and phrases were used.

      Exactly, they’re not apologizing for the things people are pissed off at them for. Just trying to downplay their scummy behavior.
