You're talking about the same Epic that intentionally broke TOS, threw a tantrum when it was correctly kicked off the store, responded with a prepared 80-page lawsuit a day later, lost on all but one count, and is now strutting around pretending it was all for the players while taking their money by the fistful.

Apples TOS is complete bullshit and I support anyone that breaks it.

Wow, what a freedom fighter.

Apple's (and Google&Co's) walled garden policies are absolute bullshit and should be outlawed, but in this, Epic is in the wrong. They agreed to a contract, they didn't like it, so they chose to break it. Besides, saying that you "support something" does fuck all. Go and do something. Call a politician and get the law changed, you rebel.

To be fair, calling a politician will do fuck all to change a law, unless you have a giant bag of money, which Google and apple have.
