DMA requires that (stated informally) large enough online marketplaces do not retaliate against developers or users without a good cause.

  The DMA requires that companies like Apple provide fair, reasonable, and non-discriminatory access for competition. The account is really neither here nor there, it's only an issue because Apple has chosen to make it a requirement to distribute an app marketplace. It's pretty clear that they can't legally freeze out Epic as a competitor, but how they solve that is up to them.

      Apple is being unfair and unreasonable, and they literally just walked back this decision within 24 hours of you vehemently defending it. As good a time as any to ask yourself; why do you defend a company you don't understand?

      It remains to be seen if Apple's developer agreement is valid under EU law.

      Think about how many times you've violated EULAs.

  That's good to hear. Let's hope a whistleblower would step up then, because it looks an awful lot like retaliation.
