EU regulation has led to Apple being forced to open up iOS in ways that many never expected, but it’s not done just yet. In an effort to ensure “effective interoperability” with other platforms, the EU wants Apple to make native features of iOS being compatible with Android, including the likes of AirDrop and more.
when does apple turn around and just stop selling in the EU?
Whenever they want to. The EU is entitled to protect its citizens from anticompetitive behavior and companies are free to stop doing business there if they don’t like it.
Truth.
Corpos might cave to pressure. Another politician might get elected.
Or your consumer/voter base might get dumb and complacent.
Good luck, all
People are also free to simply not buy products.
Given the market size, never?
When it stops being profitable to sell in the EU
According to Wikipedia, apple is the second most profitable company so i dont think that will happen soon
