If you are in the UK, I'd like to beg 5-10 minutes of your time to file comment with the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) about the proposed (toothless) "Interoperability Commitments" from Apple and Google.

These are dramatically weaker guidelines than even the EU's DMA, and Apple (particularly) has been utterly contemptuous there, ducking compliance for more than a year. Why is the UK rewarding scofflaw behaviour over these predatory practices?

@slightlyoff @pluralistic the DMCCA is only recently brought into effect and the CMA have a lot more bite with it in a broad scope of ways. I've reading the act a little and was going to use for a online betting website that was making up it's own rules, also to see if fdroid could helped and this apple thing also falls into that as well. I am wondering what is the most effective way to bring this to their attention, some succinct and cogent that possibly goes through MP & HoL as well could help
