Apple Faces EU’s First-Ever Fine Under Digital Markets Act

The European Commission plans to penalize Apple for anti-competitive App Store practices, marking the first use of the EU's Digital Markets Act against a tech giant.

Apple is set to receive a fine for allegedly breaching the EU's Digital Markets Act by restricting developers from promoting cheaper deals outside its App Store.
The potential penalty could be as high as 10% of Apple's global annual revenue, translating to tens of billions of dollars.
This marks the first time the EU will enforce the Digital Markets Act, aimed at ensuring fair competition by regulating large tech companies.
Apple has made changes to its App Store policies, but regulators argue these do not fully comply with DMA requirements.
The European Commission's decision on the fine is expected soon, possibly before the current competition commissioner leaves office.
