Apple demands EU repeal the Digital Markets Act

Apple has demanded Brussels scrap its landmark Big Tech legislation, marking a step up in US tech giants' fight against European oversight.
The EU's Digital Markets Act (DMA), which entered into force in 2022, aims to curb the power of Big Tech and level the playing field for smaller rivals, with fines of up to 10 percent of global revenue for companies that do not comply.
Apple's call to repeal the law comes at a time of transatlantic tensions over the EU's digital rule book, including the DMA.
