Maybe a step in the right direction towards a more free App Store?
Edit: Didn’t realize this was pay walled, sorry about that. I don’t think this one is: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/justice-department-sues-apple-alleging-it-illegally-monopolized-the-smartphone-market/ar-BB1kielV
Another big example is any web-browser that isn’t safari. That should be changing soon/recently (see here https://www.theverge.com/2024/1/25/24050478/apple-ios-17-4-browser-engines-eu) but that’s only because Apple was forced to.
Now they can babysit other browsers and make sure they’re secure too, ig. Might as well throw that responsibility on the trillion dollar company. At least the browsers will end up more secure once the apple security team audits them.
