Apple has abruptly reversed a decision to ban Epic Games, the maker of “Fortnite,” from launching its own app store on iOS in Europe — just a day after European Union officials said they were investigating the matter.
For sure. If Epic forces Apple to allow more competition though, that’s a good outcome. I hope the EU commission slaps Apple hard for pulling stunts like these.
And Apple hasn’t manipulated public opinion? Epic might be assholes, but they are right: Apple is anti-competitive and should adhere to the DMA.

No doubt apple has. Neither orgs are the better in this scenario.
Both are out for their own money making interest.
Sure but I think Apple is coming out worse with the way they are complying with the EU rules. At least to me it has tarnished them.
