And then the EU takes them to court and fines them billions of dollars.
The rest of the world doesn't have to stand still. They can just confiscate Apple's money using threat of government force.

But surely the US would not just stand still either while the rest of the world plunders one of its most successful megacorps/source of American influence.
- stale2002 3y agoThe USA is likely to side with the EU, actually. The US government is literally right now trying to sue Apple for similar anti trust crimes. If anything, what would happen is that the USA would finish its lawsuit and force Apple to end its illegal and anti completive behavior worldwide, instead of just in the EU.
- nozzlegear 3y agoInteresting, I didn't know the US was suing Apple right now for similar things. I don't follow it too closely, just what I see here on HN. Thanks for the info, I'll read up on it.
