sheds light on Apple’s cloud storage practices, alleging that the tech giant is exploiting users with limited free space and a system that restricts competition.
The lawsuit alleges that Apple maintains a stranglehold on iPhone and iPad users. It gives them no real choice but to use iCloud for full device backups. The measly 5GB of free storage is seen as a deliberate ploy to funnel users into expensive paid subscriptions. This limit has remained virtually unchanged since its introduction in 2011.
Industry experts find Apple’s stance baffling. “There’s simply no sound technical or security reason why Apple needs to enforce this division,” notes a prominent cloud security analyst. “It smells more of market manipulation than consumer protection.” The law firm is also involved in another class action lawsuit against Apple over its alleged throttling of older iPhones.
