Gets wise that this is blatant malicious compliance, and use this to inform potential enforcement action and/or revisions to the regulation.

It could very well become that after enough of this, DMA 2.0 would have a provision stipulating that any feature withheld in the EU would need to have a valid technical justification that passes review by a panel of independent experts.

Yep, I hope they work on something like that. Maybe we could get a chance for another competitive OS in the EU.

Sometimes I wish they tax the hell out of those US behemoth in a way that would open space for EU companies to become competitive. The network effects are too big when it comes to IT, it's not very wise to let the US be the sole beneficiary of such an industry.
