The law of EU is threatening the whole business model of Apple, while the order of China relates to a single product only, and not even a product of Apple itself. So the cases are not comparable at all.
Besides, the Chinese order is a clear cut while the law of EU open many ways to interpret.
- Nextgrid 3y ago> the law of EU open many ways to interpret. This is only a problem if you’re intentionally trying to do the bare minimum or have a scummy business model that you’re trying to protect. You can always take the nicest, pro-user (or pro-competition, pro-privacy, etc) approach to preempt any variance in interpretation. Nobody’s been fined for being too compliant after all.
