I was laughing when they started the procedure months ago.
First of all I'm more keen to the "Apple should be less paternalistic" idea, but despite what i think about their behaviour i need to explain to all non-italian folks around here that the AGCOM (Autorità per le garanzie nelle comunicazioni/Authority for Communications Guarantees) is a crappy authority, it is really a joke and I'll list a couple of cases to highlight its quality:
- Fined tv journalists for how they managed their airing time every year in different ways, most of the time the decision is based on who's leading the current government
- Wanted to fine WhatsApp\Telegram\Etc because they were "free to use" despite the mobile carriers were STILL charging for goddamn TXTs
- It developed an antediluvian software to misure your internet bandwidth and line quality that used to work only on Windows, that should have been left alone without interfering for 24/48 hours and most of the time was not working (instead of asking for fucking *DSL minimum attenuance/SNR/QoS levels by law)
Believe me, they are just trying to abuse of their power for some juice and I hope Apple and Samsung will go via EU legal routes just to let everything fall apart
p.s. I really hope our cousins from the other side of the Alps will do much better, no matter what's the stake
