Another hefty EU fine for Apple under Digital Markets Act? Competition chief says many ‘serious issues’

The European Commission’s competition chief Margrethe Vestager flagged “very serious issues” regarding the tech giant’s compliance with the Digital Markets Act (DMA), which aims to curb the dominance of big tech companies.

“We have a number of Apple issues; I find them very serious. I was very surprised that we would have such suspicions of Apple being non-compliant,” Vestager said in an interview with CNBC on June 18.
