I mean the EU made them allow app stores but Apple made a complete mockery of them by requiring their rubber stamp and charging “only” 27% fee and the EU is just letting them get away with that so yeah, I have little faith.
There isn’t really any getting away with.
If what Apple does is within the law then the EU can’t prevent it. I’m sure somebody is looking into preventing Apple from doing it, but propper legislation takes time.
Hopefully this actually leads to something lasting, but I don’t have high hopes considering how Europe is getting dragged atm

But they are. Right now.
They should have thought of that when they created the legislation.
