@neatchee@urusai.social Okay, I get it. Well here, the good news is it will not require much code from Apple. The big part of it is the alternate software sources, and they are not for Apple to code. In fact, they are already available, but they required the user to crack a restriction developed by Apple to prevent that. This operation is called “jailbreaking”. All they have to do to comply, that it's, with regard to the software source part of the DMA, is to provide an official option to, well, jailbreak. Of course they can do something more specific, more refined or whatever, but basically, this is about removing an anti-feature, not adding a feature.

    @elessar@social1.ortolo.eu bruh, I worked for an android OEM and have been rooting/jailbreaking phones since the second ever Android phone (t-mo mytouch). And building PCs, and generally tinkering since long before that. I know exactly what is required. They aren't resistant because it's difficult. They resist because it's profitable
