The Federal Regional Court of the 1st Region (TRF-1) has overturned a trial ruling and reinstated an injunction imposed by the Administrative Council for Economic Defense (Cade) on Apple, as part of an investigation into alleged abuse of dominant position in the app distribution market for iOS devices. According to the ruling, the company will have 90 days to implement the changes mandated by the antitrust authority.
then don’t.
it’s not something your being forced to do. it’s the lifting of an unnecessary restriction that in turn gives you more power on your device.
iOS is so closed source I don’t think Apple is gonna give us that freedom!!
Windows and Mac OS are both closed source but both allow apps outside an app store. No issue with the code base there.
Webkit.
If they don’t then they might lose the Brazilian market and who knows what comes after. It’s less about what Apple wants to do and more about what they might be forced to do.
They’ll comply for sure but at what cost, that’s the thing to watch.
You’re right, at what cost…?
It costs them nothing. Sideloading on iOS is already a thing, they spend more restricting the hell out of it than just letting you do it
