European Union regulators are increasing pressure on Apple and Google for violating the Digital Markets Act, which aims for fairness in the digital economy. A preliminary ruling states Google used its dominant search engine to favor its services, giving it an unfair competitive edge. Furthermore, Apple has been directed to allow better interoperability of third-party devices with its iOS system. This regulatory action escalates existing geopolitical tensions between the U.S. and EU, particularly concerning technology company regulations and competitive practices.
The European Commission's preliminary judgment concluded that Google misused its search engine dominance to unfairly promote its own services, infringing the Digital Markets Act.
Apple has been instructed to enable improved compatibility for third-party devices with its iOS system, reflecting ongoing regulatory pressures to ensure competitive fairness.
