The thing that’s missing is that Facebook can now exploit people whereas previously Apple was forcing Facebook to act just slightly less shitty. If Facebook can bypass Apple then there is no leverage.

Apple was enforcing some baseline of good behavior that developers no longer need to abide by. Apples subscription management is actually pretty consumer friendly, for example and I have to imagine plenty of companies are chomping at the bit to extract more money from shady tactics once they are no longer forced into decent behavior

Facebook in the EU should be regulated by the EU, not Apple. The EU should not be delegating this regulation to an American corporation.

Then why was it up to Apple? The EU failed to regulate the pervasive tracking of Facebook on devices, Apple did what they could to protect their users.
