07 March 2024
The European Commission will investigate why Apple banned Epic's developer account.

I'll curious what is the age group for the commission or their average age?

Because I'm used to government bodies being full of super old people that have no idea about technology

      Apple's entire business plan is to try and create as much of a monopoly as possible and EU's entire stick is to fight monopolies - these two goals are incompatible.

                            EU not playing with apple at all 😂

                              Fine apple EU, it won't hurt
                              800 Million is ok

                                Apple entered donald drunk mode. Frustrated wig wearers with a small... complex. Hope the EU will fine them out of Europe.

                                  I mean, Apple doesn't NEED to make money off of every single app. They're big enough and resourceful enough that it's no longer a requirement. At this point, it's just broken legalities and a missed opportunity of making more money, of which the latter issue is what's driving the former.

                                    EU is being really harsh on Apple these days...(although it is for good)

                                      upss
