FSF Europe condemns Apple`s DMA noncompliance
Date:
Fri, 28 Jun 2024 14:37:05 +0000
Description:
The Free Software Foundation Europe has submitted a joint position to the
European Commission (EC), claiming that Apple
has failed to comply with the EU`s Digital Markets Act (DMA). This is the law
that requires Apple to support alternative application stores on the devices
it
makes. Apple`s unfair behaviour against Free Software highlights the critical
need to
monitor the implementation of the DMA. The FSFE collaborated with F-Droid, the
AppFair project, and other interoperability experts to scrutinize Apple`s DMA
compliance, and it`s impact on Free Software. Since then, we coordinated
several
expert workshops with stakeholders, discussed with regulators in FOSDEM , had
official meetings with the EC`s DMA team , and submitted a comprehensive
position to the EC detailing several problematic elements in the Apple
compliance that
will harm the Free Software.
