Despite being legally required by the EC, #Apple continues to obstruct effective interoperability. Out of 56 requests, not a single one has resulted in a new interoperability solution. Developers are denied access to Just-In-Time-Compilation, NFC, or Bluetooth Low Energy Audio with arguments contradicting Apple’s own documentation. And there is the constant fear for developers to lose their developer accounts.

The #DMA must be implemented in a developer-friendly way, ensuring that legal obligations translate into fair and equal access to #iOS and iPadOS features. See more in that report from my great @fsfe@mastodon.social co-workers @llas@defcon.social and @dario@pan.rent : Apple keeps challenging its interoperability obligations under the DMA" https://fsfe.org/news/2026/news-20260420-01.html

@kirschner@mastodon.social And Apple really did not need to go along this path. Same as it never needed to overcharge for products. When you sit on a pot of a trillion dollars, you can make better decisions.
