Apple refuses to relax its iron grip on iPhones in Europe::As its walled garden crumbles, Apple grudgingly allows EU users to sideload applications. Will regulators take stiffer action, and what about the US?

If this isn't violating the DMA then the DMA is stupid. Legislation should limit the company's control, not force it into a specific action while allowing it to maintain as much control as possible.

In other words the DMA should effectively say "you don't get to choose how your platform is used", not "you get to make the rules, but just don't be the only one who can develop for your platform".
