It is not a leech to create legislation that is intended to act as consumer protection for your citizens. Quite the opposite actually. You may argue that the legislation doesn't do what it claims to do, but it makes no sense to call them a leech when Apple is operating in their market, and thus subject to the rules of their market.
Perhaps you may think of the EU as Apple and the common market as the App Store if it will make it any more palatable.
- pb7 4y agoYou could create your own products and services that would naturally drive competition in the market which would benefit the entire world instead of relying on someone else to do the hard work just so you can whine about how it’s done. Europe does very little that does not benefit itself exclusively. In short, a leech.
- Apocryphon 4y agoEurope creates consumers, who buy and use goods and services. They are literally providing something of value to Apple and tech companies.
