EU court rejects Apple’s challenge against EU rules

Europe’s second-highest court on Wednesday dismissed Apple’s challenge against landmark EU rules labelling its app stores and operating system iOS as gatekeepers subject to strict obligations.Apple took its grievances to the Luxembourg-based General Court in 2024 after the European Commission designated its five App Stores on iPhones, iPads, Mac computers, Apple TVs and Apple Watches as a single core platform service under the Digital Markets Act subject to onerous obligations.The iPhone maker also contested the labelling of its operating system iOS as an important gateway for businesses to reach users requiring it to allow rivals to inter-operate with the system. Do you think that Apple should just restrict its service in EU markets ?
