In a ruling that threatens Apple’s lucrative App Store business, the U.S. Supreme Court on Monday allowed a proposed class-action consumer lawsuit against the iPhone maker to proceed.

At issue was whether iPhone users had the right to sue the tech giant, which takes a 30 percent cut from tens of millions of app developers on its platform, over what they say is a monopolistic practice that drove up prices of apps. Other tech giants that have similar platforms, such as Google, have a stake in the outcome of the case.
