Apple has under 30 days to comply with EU rules or face daily fines


Apple is facing a critical deadline in the European Union, with fewer than 30 days remaining to overhaul its App Store practices or face additional financial penalties...

The Commission found that Apple's rules – including so-called "anti-steering" provisions and technical barriers – made it unnecessarily difficult for developers to direct users to external payment options. Apple has strongly objected to the Commission's findings and the size of the fine, arguing that the requirements threaten user privacy and security and effectively force the company to give away its technology for free. The European Commission, for its part, maintains that Apple's privacy and security concerns are not substantiated, and that the DMA's goal is to ensure consumers and developers benefit from real choice and fairer digital markets.
