> Apple have a pretty large vested interest in not supporting interoperability here

Yeah that needs to stop. This is kinda why the DMA was created in the first place...

It doesn't _have_ to stop - the features just can't ship in the EU while these requirements are in place, which is exactly what is happening here. The law is working as intended, just not in the way the proponents thought it would.

Yes, they can. Apple wields its duopoly power to try and bend governments to its will.

Then why aren't they?

[troupo]

Because Apple decided you don't deserve them.

It literally is:

EU: users must have choice.

Apple: no.

Apple literally says that because they are required to give users more choice they will give users less choice: https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2025/09/the-digital-markets-a...
