Second. Swizerland alone has more purchese power then the whole China, and probably USA too, and there you come talking nonsense about Europe... kids this days like to talk but not to learn.

Anonymous, 13 Nov 2024Starting with the Epic Games battle, the EU found out they ... moreIt seems like never heard of laws and you think investigators just need some pocket money for their Christmass presents. So they decide to just fine left and right, cause well, their is no law to guide them or stop them. I do not know what country you are living in, apparently one that lacks understanding of what "Law" means. EU has laws and laws are being applied. Because of this laws and apple constantly breaking them, helps investigators to also constantly build cases against crapple. If their wouldn't be a law saying this and that pracrice is not allowed, then their would be no case against crapple now isn't it? Recover from fanboyims after that you'll probably see whats all about.

danielfgom, 13 Nov 2024This is a welcome ruling as far as I’m concerned. The premi... moreEU is not a single country, It doesn't have a single currency, each state has It's own budget, taxes, etc....
Please stop spreading nonsense, we are still separate countries and I hope It will stay that way.
There is no equality in EU. I don't have a pay like a German, yet food costs the same, but the quality is lower. So I find It ridiculous that you expect a foreign company to treat every EU state equal when we don't do that among us either.

And no it's... moreDigital Racism: color-coding people who don't use iphone with green bubbles. (Half of the world falls into that category)
It's more about poor-shaming than actual racism. Both are just as bad. What's funnier is that even though RCS messages are almost identical to Blue iMessage-messages Apple still color-codes them as green. They refuse to offer the option to customize the bubbles to one's preference like Google does with Material You theming.

People in most Asian countries, in LATAM, and Africa can only dream about this salaries. Not to mention that life in this two countries is cheaper than in Germany, France etc. Europe is richest continent, but with falling economy cause of this situation in Ukr.
