"The European Commission went on to point out that Safari's functionality and underlying technologies are near-identical across platforms. The Commission even highlights Apple's own marketing materials for its Continuity feature, which appear to contradict the company's claims, touting the tag line "Same Safari. Different device." As a result, the Commission rejected Apple's claim and insists that "Safari qualifies as a single web browser, irrespective of the device through which that service is accessed.""

Governments and stately instances so rarely have a proper grasp of technology. This is beautiful.

On example cited by Apple is Safari's sidebar feature on iPadOS and macOS, allowing users to see opened tabs, tab groups, bookmarks, and browsing history. Since this feature is unavailable in the version of Safari for iOS, Apple claimed that it is a distinctly different browser.

Apple claimed repairing your Mac with 3rd party parts turns it into a PC so you can't resell it as a Mac.

Ah, there's where all the creativity went to.

Apple needs to allow non-webkit browsers on iOS.

Of course they did. Microsoft tried this in the 90's with Internet Explorer, Outlook, and Explorer. Sure, it does three different things, but it's the SAME THING.

So much for "we care about your privacy"

We all know that was BS but the isheep sadly believe it.

I'm a big fan of Apple's products, but this is some serious bullshit. Fuck off.

Apple bullshittery again
