So now Apple says that "the DMA is not benefiting consumers in the form of lower prices".
Sure. Fine.
But maybe, just *maybe*, we're not seeing those benefits because Apple has never truly complied, has made it as difficult as possible for businesses to take advantage of the DMA?
5/5

No you don't need an app on your phone to buy things? They have a website, FFS.
(The same goes for the PS Store app, btw)

[NL] "Meningen moeten kunnen botsen" klinkt leuk totdat één mening gewoon onderdrukt en/of helemaal niet geuit mag worden, precies op de plek waar het botst

We're talking about us, the people, depending on two companies that act as the single gateway for software to reach our phones. These companies just went ahead and bent the knee to Trump & Co, and did their bidding.
No court order. Not even a formal complaint.

We could really use some deep and continuous reporting on this. From the comments, it looks like people already see through Apple's charade, but it really helps if actual journalists write about it, too. Like, repeatedly.

Spun up a simulator, here is a screenshot with part of the page visible below the bottom sheet (which doesn't look right) and with my extra div that makes the browser UI opaque
