Apple has appealed a €500 million fine from the European Commission, citing the ruling as excessive and a misinterpretation of the law. The fine was imposed for Apple's alleged unfair practices that prevented app developers from informing users about cheaper options outside the App Store, violating the Digital Markets Act. Apple argues that the Commission's requirements create confusion among developers and impose detrimental terms that affect users. The case centers on Apple's policy against 'steering,' which the Commission ruled as contrary to the DMA's regulations.
