‘Unfair’ EU rules are delaying features for European users, the tech giant says.

“Bureaucrats in Brussels” are unfairly challenging Apple’s closed ecosystem and denying users the “magical, innovative experience” that makes the firm unique, Apple said.

The so-called walled garden that combines Apple’s products and software ensures a safe and high quality experience for users, it says, but EU regulators counter that it unfairly shuts out rivals.

    This doesn’t really cut their profits in any way outside of app store sales I suppose. They are still selling hardware. Adding new soures of apps doesn’t, in any way, take away their “magic”. That’s not being taken away at all.

    Also iOS and MacOS are not the same. You don’t have to go through apple store to get apps running on macOS. There is no hard restriction on what software you can run on it.
