The European Commission (EC) announced on Monday that it will investigate several gatekeepers over the way they've chosen to comply with the Digital Markets Act (DMA). To the surprise of basically nobody who has been following Apple's methods of introducing iPhone sideloading support in the EU, Apple is part of that investigation.
I explained in detail how iPhone sideloading would work in Europe when Apple announced its DMA compliance changes. At the time, I warned that the EC might not like Apple's methods. One possible reason for an investigation was the CTF fee that Apple would charge developers of popular apps who make their software available on their websites or third-party stores.
It turns out the EC will indeed look at the fee structure Apple has proposed. But that's not the only point of contention the EC has with Apple on the latter's DMA compliance.
