Well, except that they do. TFA says that the clipboard app in question had to include a map because it requires a dirty workaround to stay active in the background, at apple's demands. Yes, they're not "app store rules" and they're "notarization rules" but the end result is the same, they could choose to make those rules the same and yeah maybe a European court could force them to comply but in reality land apple has more money and lawyers than god.
- dagmx 3y agoYou’re conflating two things. There’s App Store rules and then there’s system rules (security, multitasking etc). The DMA only side steps the former not the latter. The issue in the article is the latter.
- themoonisachees 3y agoSure, but as long as apple will play hardball like they're clearly doing, they could very well enforce app store rules as app signing rules and it'd be years before the eu would force them to stop, not even counting on the fact that current app signing rules are already insane.
