Apple Faces Potential App Store Antitrust Probe in China

[siddavis]

It is! China cleared Apple in May 2024 after investigating the App Store. This is a direct result of the new boneheaded tariffs imposed by Mango.

But is it a noble pursuit, or not? My point is, why was everyone cheerleading when the EU did it, but now they are mad at Trump when it is happening in China?

If it is such a good thing and "Mango" is the reason (as stated with certainty), then he should get credit for making it happen, no?

Apple’s entire business model is based on ‘unreasonably high’ prices. 🤷‍♂️

Eventually it will catch up. Silly how people complain about the cost and still buy their stuff. Personally, I think it's expensive. But, I like it better than the rest. So I don't whine about it. I don't need a government to help me make buying decisions.

The division between US and UK is interesting to observe, I am sure that the Brits helped orchestrating the DeepSeek thing and now this antitrust probe.
