The European Commission is preparing to impose a hefty fine of 500 million euros on the American firm. This decision, which should be announced at the beginning of March, would be a great first for Brussels, which has never sanctioned Apple in the name of competition.
The sanction would come in an already tense context between Brussels and the tech giants, who must comply, from March 7, with the new law on digital markets, the Digital Markets Act (DMA) Next month, the Commission should officially declare that Apple's commercial conditions are unfair, and that they go against European competition rules.
