The European Commission has fined Apple over €1.8 billion for abusing its dominant position on the market for the distribution of music streaming apps to iPhone and iPad users (‘iOS users’) through its App Store. In particular, the Commission found that Apple applied restrictions on app developers preventing them from informing iOS users about alternative and cheaper music subscription services available outside of the app (‘anti-steering provisions’). This is illegal under EU antitrust rules.
Siemens Mobile, Alcatel, Ericssson, Nokia, Psion - where are those phone manufacturers, where are those companies selling their tech right now and why their main market is not in EU ? Symbian OS, where is this open source operating system ? You don’t see what globalists are doing because you’re delusional, shout open source and you are sold whatever and whoever is behind it. Books are not real life. I can’t wait for chinese companies take over every automotive brand in EU after EU destorys their automotive like they destroyed their mobile phone manufacturers, maybe this would wake up people.
Dear MAGAt, delete your account and cut your internet cable.
Sure, thanks. Wish you all the best too. What next order you got from your commander ?
Many of these companies still exist but do other things. The biggest open source successful project is Servers - much servers run Linux. After that the next most successful open source is Android - the best selling mobile OS on the planet. That’s really my friend…
First thing is that Android is not open source. It’s open core. Second thing go make android phone without signing NDA with Google, try to convince factories to sell you parts so you can make a mobile phone and wait until they say they don’t want to be removed from Google official list.
Oh those companies do different things now so they’re cool ? What things they do ? Siemens Mobile renamed and owned by Chinese, Alcatel licensed to TCL - Chinese. You’re bragging aboout China being bad, but look those companies do different things they’re good, they were forced to sell their business to China so they’re good now.
It’s all good, it’s great. Great because you can install your linux. Very soon only on old hardware because they won’t sell you new one without spyware and drm inside but well you’re good. You can install things, but you can’t install them on Playstation, you can’t install them on Nintendo, on your coffe maker, on your washing machine, on your owen, on your car or anywhere you want. You can install things only where they allow you to do it and you’re happy with that. LOL
I didn’t say China was bad. I said Apple was bad.
And you can make a very good Android phone with AOSP. You won’t have Google services but you could make your own app store like Huawei and Samsung have.
So China is good. Nice to hear that, at least I know with whom I am writing. What’s next command comrade ?
I never said China was good either. I just said Apple are being jackasses.
Newsflash: there is no such thing as a good government or politician. They are typically all scumbags.
Seems Apple is following in their footsteps
There is difference between for profit company responsibilitires and government responsibilities. What EU did is in my opinion as an Apple user - they saw shit laying and they said let’s spread this shit all over the people that use those products. That’s what money penalty is and you’re claiming it’s fine and moreover you’re claiming that products that I legally bought with full awareness what they are ( I was using custom AOSP) should be banned from country in which I was born. That’s what I feal. What I feel is I should leave EU and Europe because it will kill itself by people like you. Well good luck with that attitude, becaue it would happen to you at some point and you will end up with no money whatsoever because some government administration worker will say you’re guilty of doing something that is part of your income for years.
