No, the EU fucked itself.
Apple cares about one group of people: its customers and their security. They are, in fact, the only company that does. As the family nerd, I dont ever need to support Apple devices. It's the only brand im going to recommend to them because they are security and customer satisfaction first.
The only people who are upset about Apples policies are people MAKING MONEY off the platform.
Do I feel bad for any of the business involved in this. No, because they are BUSINESS and dont require sympathy.

They literally installed a backdoor into Apple Silicon due to pressure from the CCP (lest they kill Apple by cutting their cheap manufacturing): https://www.kaspersky.com/about/press-releases/2023_kaspersky-discloses-iphone-hardware-feature-vital-in-operation-triangulation-case https://www.kaspersky.com/about/press-releases/2023_kaspersk...
- zer00eyz 3y ago>> They literally installed a backdoor into Apple Silicon due to pressure from the CCP The link you presented does not support that idea at all. Vs something well covered and known: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple–FBI_encryption_dispute https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple–FBI_encryption_dispute Can we get some links that support your CCP claim from any kind of reputable source?
- shrimp_emoji 3y agoNah; that's just my personal conspiracy theory. I think Apple is way more afraid of the CCP than the FBI/NSA, so the CCP is my bet.

- aeurielesn 3y agoHonestly, they don't care. Apple is using this as a chance to spin the public opinion against DMA — which it's hurting their walled garden — to kill a feature they never wanted. It was confirmed in another thread they killed PWAs for Safari too which it doesn't make sense.
- _cenw 3y agoApple cares so much about security, the App Store regularly has all the things Apple says will be a problem without them as gatekeepers. Scams, intransparent pricing, phishing apps and "whale hunting" (with a nice 30% cut for Apple from exploting gambling addictions).

- szasamasa 3y agoare your relatives that dumb potatoes you cannot recommend using safari as their web browser? safari can ban web capabilities and you and your family can use it let me and others make our own choices of web browsers
