Good on the EU for supporting consumer rights over corporate profits.

Sometimes. But sometimes (like next week for example) they are also trying to implement mass surveillance of all EU-Citizens’ private communication.

Eu is basically a bipolar legal monkey, sometimes they so something good. Other times they do chat control

Namely, the fact that Apple charges a “Core Technology Fee” for developers who want to “steer” users to offers outside of its App Store. There’s also an additional 3% that goes to Apple if a developer uses its payment processor.

Hmmm… 18,250M per year or 18.25B per year. For a trillion $ company, that’s 0.18%. Wasn’t that supposed to be more?

Even in that case, 18.25B is 1.8% of 1T, not 0.18%.

Correct. Brain added one 0 to the trillion 😅

In the article it says it is 5% of their global revenue each day. That is a lot of money, I have no doubt that they will fix it.
