EU reaction to Apple's removal of AppGratis
- TazeTSchnitzel 14y ago" EU reaction to Apple's removal of AppGratis"? Why EU reaction? This is the reaction of France.
- joshguthrie 14y ago"This is the reaction of France"? Why France reaction? This is the reaction of Fleur Pellerin. No seriously, why even talk of Fleur? Here is a better view on the situation from RudeBaguette: http://www.rudebaguette.com/2013/04/12/fleur-pellerin-startup-mommy-tells-apple-to-play-nice-with-appgratis-or-else/ http://www.rudebaguette.com/2013/04/12/fleur-pellerin-startu...

I think we're talking about the worst Minister ever for this post :)
- TazeTSchnitzel 14y agoI put "France" although I really meant "Fleur", the problem was I was on a mobile device and couldn't go back and find out who it was specifically.
- joshguthrie 14y agoSorry about the tone if it appeared "condescending", I just wanted to "copy" your answer style to be more concise for future readers. Most people don't know the depths of Fleur's "competence" yet, so I wanted to pass along this information =)

- antr 14y agoTitle link bait. Original title: French junior minister says Apple was “brutal” with AppGratis
- gregcohn 14y agoI found this phrase in the article to be chilling: "before stating that she would ask the European Commission to tighten up its regulations on how Internet companies handle their digital platforms." It might have been better to add a question mark, but it certainly wasn't meant as linkbait.
- olgeni 14y ago> and ultimately cheapen the premium experience that Apple tries to create And the "premium experience" would be the app store? Really?
