@daringfireball on that note, those new „modal“ logins that show the user name / mail field only, at first, are also super annoying, as e.g. Bitwarden does not recognize it as a login.
Also, there‘s a security argument to be made against magic links - if you lose access to your mails, you lose everything. Instead of having different credentials on different accounts, all logins are concentrated on one credential.

@daringfireball From that Politico article you linked:
„Julien Bayou was inspired by a class action launched in the United States in 2019 for the same reason. Apple has always denied and continues to deny any reprehensible act in this case. However, the company agreed, at the end of December 2024, to pay $95 million (€92.5 million) to end the prosecution of American consumers, who accused it of recording their private conversations without their knowledge.“
@daringfireball It all screams China and Russia
@daringfireball I believe you missed the most interesting one: The € 477,640 Cobra keybad version: https://vertu.com/products/signature-cobra-limited-edition-keypad-phone/
@ngo @daringfireball @counternotions Agreed! They could have a chance to access such appstore if e.g. the whole home network went through a VPN (via the router or some such)
@delric @dmitriid @daringfireball … and unlike in Russia, Apple is indeed withholding an important part of their experience from their EU-customers (who paid much more for their hardware than US-customers) instead of complying. Not the least because they want these customers to turn against such regulations. On the other hand, Apple was never truly global, there’s so much stuff limited to the US (financial services, News+, Wallet IDs… etc.)
@daringfireball (5) That‘s the reason why EU regulations contain background and reasoning in the preamble, 109 paragraphs of them in the case of the DMA.
A journalist could find that out easily if one was really interested in the truth and not only awash with emotions at the EU‘s attempt to iron out the defunct antitrust law via the DMA.
@daringfireball (4) Considering the spirit and purpose of a provision as well as the comprehensive programme of the European Community can be problematic when different purposes (eg free market and protection interests) conflict. This applies to those directives that serve the overall interest of achieving the internal market but also address issues such as employee or consumer protection.“ .

@daringfireball (3) „First and foremost, the ECJ uses the literal method. In particular, it uses coordinate versions of texts in the different official languages“ (…) „This is why, crucially, the ECJ often employs purposive considerations, an approach not only used for resolving disputes caused by diverging versions of texts. This method is also suggested by the functional perspective chosen by the EU, trying to achieve the goals determined in the primary law (…)“

Under European Law, it‘s a *required technique* for European Courts to interpret the law: „The ECJ mainly uses the grammatical, systematic and purposive methods of interpretation.“ (whereas grammatical equivaletes to the „letter of the law“ interpretation, and „systematic and purposive“ to „spirit of the law“ (i.e. was intended)) (…)
