Not fair....
Apple owns the hw and sw with their store....why people think that it's their right to open another stores ???
It is as if u own a store in ur home and someone want to open his store inside ur home
Apple has the right to close any other store

Anonymous, 09 Mar 2024Epic Games apps store only available in EU. LOL, that sucks... moreWhat does this even mean? So if a country (or in this case governing body) investigates anti competitive behaviour from the biggest tech company in the world - this is automatically the evidence of political corruption? Really? How does this make any sense?

Fun fact: every device on iOS 16 (even 14PM) can now be jailbroken and thus get REAL sideloading everywhere.

EU is bullying Apple relentlessly. They deserve it. Apple is like the Nintendo of the consumer technology world, intimidating and threatening people (but without copyright involved.)

DBS, 09 Mar 2024Apple continuously tries to violate European Laws. I think... moreI wouldn't go as far as to say Apple should be outright banned (Android OEMs would have less competition if that was the case), but I would like to see the EU enforce more pro-customer guidelines (forcing smartphone/tablet manufacturers to include aux jacks, expandable memory, etc...).

Apple continuously tries to violate European Laws.
I think it's high time the EU bans them from the European market, even if temporarily. Say, a 5 year ban. During those 5 years, Apple is banned from doing business in Europe, apart from servicing products already on the market under legal warranty.
Let's see if after 5 years without Europe's money, Apple is still so willing to try to continuously affront our laws.

Epic Games apps store only available in EU. LOL, that sucks. Good luck Epic Games and Epic Games agreed to Apple terms and conditions. Mark my words, within few years come, Epic Games going to make trouble again with Apple and then crying to big daddy EU for help. Only then you people learn that EU is just a bunch of lobbyist politicians who received money from people like Epic Games 🙄

Your mistake is in thinking Apple is an exception rather than a rule, they are all the same, Apple has just historically been better at it than their competitors…..

ThatOneWeabo, 09 Mar 2024eu won againI wish governments globally had the courage as that of EU, to take action against apple
They made mandatary to implement a single port for charging gadgets, allowed third party app stores and now this, really big respect to EU
If the same amount of efforts are made by other countries, then no single company will hold this much power and monopoly in the market

The DMA is the best thing to grace humanity! Seriously, Apple is such an idiotic company. Apple tries to go as far as possible without being stomped on. If they don't follow the laws, I think the EU won't allow any member states to sell Apple products, so Apple has been backed into a ton of walls lately.

Tim Apple in shambles, every last inch of the golden parachute WILL be inspected twice over now.
We might get to see the "Too big to fail" capitalistic trillion dollar mega-corp spiel get tested in the coming days.

Everything Apple does is to test the limits of the system. They want to see with how much they can get away without being hit on the fingers. This is another example
