Apple rejects criticism over its compliance with new EU market rules

Firms that fail to comply with the Digital Market Act risk investigations that can lead to fines of as much as 10% of their global annual turnover

Apple recently introduced a raft of new changes to the iPhone to ensure it is complying with new legislation enacted by the European Union. 

Apple has rejected criticism that it is not fully complying with the EU Digital Market Act (DMA) which forced the company to open up parts of its iPhone operating system within the bloc.

At a hearing organised by the European Commission, Apple told developers, business users, and tech rivals that they are complying with the law in a “way that was consistent with our values”.
