Looks like someone at Apple is butthurt :D
“Butthurt” implies personal offense. This is about maximizing profit, nothing else.
Didn’t they get fined or something by the US for lying about policies related to this issue? I can’t imagine the EU wouldn’t be even more strict on this considering existing precedence.
A lot of court cases will come with a judgement where it’s important to implement said judgement with how it was intended.
This, obviously, is not what was intended. I think it’ll have a funny side effect of people now beit able to see when they’re being extorted by apple, but still.
We’re I the EU, I would fine the hell out of apple for this bullshit. However, I’m not and something tells me that this is as far as it will go, unfortunately.
