Thats an interesting question. It is unclear what happens to co-collaborators of legal violations like that.
But, it won't actually come to that, as Apple will simply follow the law, instead of risking 10s of billions of dollars in fines. Because thats what would happen to Apple if they tried to force other companies to go along with their law breaking schemes.
- idle_zealot 3y agoIn the case of Google and McDonalds I don't think there was collaboration. The developers of the McDonalds app included root detection code and have their app refuse to load all on their own as part of some ill-considered security scheme. If apps on iOS are able to detect whether 3rd party stores/apps are enabled we may see the same thing play out. I wonder then if just providing the ability to detect other apps like that would be a violation of the DMA, as it gives others apps on the system the ability to degrade their functionality.
