South Korea's broadcasting and telecommunications regulator fined Google and Apple a combined 63.7 billion won ($47.6 million) on Oct. 28 for forcing app developers to use their in-app payment systems and for improperly delaying app reviews, according to Yonhap and the Korea Times. This marks the first such penalty against the tech giants over their payment policies. The Korea Times reports the fine is the first of its kind, while Yonhap's coverage confirms the regulator's action. No Korean blog or café reactions were included in the supplied documents.
