fer0nApple Intelligence Features Not Coming to European Union at Launch Due to DMA
chiisanaIt is unreasonable to expect platforms to open up everything to be ripped out and swapped for their competitors.
I expect platforms get more and more cautious as to what they release into unfavorable regulatory environments that offer only marginal economical benefits.
odiumExpecting platforms to try and get chosen by consumers for being a good option rather than being the only option is unreasonable?
astrskThis is what never made sense to me about this argument.
Who exactly is forcing people to buy iPhones? How is the platform anti-competition when there’s loads of competition all around it, in equally as large numbers?
The walled garden has always been a feature, a selling point. And people choose to adopt it or not.
Can you explain better how the logic in your argument above goes, with that in mind?
The DMA doesn’t seem to have ever been about consumer choice, it’s about the choice of other competitors to have access to Apple’s customers without having to play by Apple’s rules. Just look at who was pushing for sideloading on iOS, I mostly saw Meta and Epic Games at the forefront. Why should Apple compromise my device’s integrity so that Meta can spy on me? I have no good answer to that.
