I for one am absolutely against features not existing for customers who want it just because the Apple deigns that they shouldn’t have it. I don't want Apple to take away my agency to make my own choices.

Good thing governments are on the side of the consumer at least, right?

Apple thought the risk of including it was too high because of the DMA.

Users in the US and the rest of the world do have it.

And we talking about the same EU government that every other year tries to make it a law that there must be a backdoor in messaging platforms?

And the same Apple that puts them there: https://support.apple.com/en-us/111754

But hey, at least Apple is more principled than those filthy, corrupt and privacy destroying governments. They would never kowtow to a higher power, our stout and beloved Apple.
