But it obviously isn’t required to maintain security of the platform. Apple manages to run MacOS in a more open fashion. Is the argument that MacOS is illegally insecure or something? If the enforcers of the DMA allow a company to simply build their security policy in a way to avoid the rules enforcing the opening of the platform, then what’s the point of the DMA in the first place? Honestly I don’t think Apple will talk their way out of this. EU regulators seem to be much less forgiving of such shenanigans. It’s obvious the point of the DMA is for Apple to open up their platform.
That said only time we’ll tell how this plays out.
- gmueckl 3y agoI tend to agree with you. But things that seem obvious to us techies may not be that obvious to laymen. Also, legal interpetations of a situation may be abstracted a lot from the underlying facts. So if this goes to court, the likelihood of a very bizarre ruling is not 0.
