The article got it only slightly wrong. Apple isn't sabotaging epub, they're sabotaging ebooks. Probably the author conflates epub with ebooks, an understandable mistake.
Of course, Apple isn't alone in this behavior, I wouldn't even call them the worst offenders. They, at least, have the virute of being only sporadically effective. Pretty much every corporation with revenue > $1B feels free to try to sabotage some public good for its own short-term benefit, at some point in its history or the other.
Just ignore their efforts, these too will fail eventually.
