Commission opens non-compliance investigations against Alphabet, Apple and Meta

I hope they did not forget Microsoft and their continuing monopoly abuse.

Remarks by Executive Vice-President Vestager:

Apple and Alphabet still charge various recurring fees and still limit steering. We will investigate to what extent these fees and limitations defeat the purpose of the anti-steering provision and by that, limit consumer choice.

Apple's ... current design of the web browser choice screen deprives end-users of the ability to make a fully informed decision. .... Apple also failed to make several apps uninstallable (one of them would be Photos) and prevents end-users from changing their default status (for example Cloud), as required by the DMA.
