Who would’ve thought? This isn’t going to fly with the EU.
Article 5.3 of the Digital Markets Act (DMA): “The gatekeeper shall not prevent business users from offering the same products or services to end users through third-party online intermediation services or through their own direct online sales channel at prices or conditions that are different from those offered through the online intermediation services of the gatekeeper.”
I use Apple products, think they’re a shitty company, but who offer the best products in a world of shitty companies. And as someone who’s used Macs since 2007, I’ve noticed time and time again how people will shit on me and my choice of computer while I never shit on theirs in return.
Do I bitch about Windows on the occasions I have to use it? Yes, of course, because it’s fucking terrible/ not what I’m used to, but I appreciate that some people are happy to use it, or have to for whatever reason. My criticism of the OS isn’t a personal attack on anyone who uses it.
But yeah, my choice of computer is a personal failing, apparently.
