I think the EU has really hit the jackpot with Apple, Google, and the like. It's not that these big players don't deserve a slap on the wrist; it's more about how long the EU waited to act and the deafening silence before now.
Remember the Microsoft antitrust drama in 2001? [1] That saga said more about the political games than anything to do with Microsoft breaking the rules. It feels like today's crackdowns on the tech giants are more about putting on a show than enforcing the law fairly.
I'm just hoping the EU doesn't decide we need another annoying pop-up or something. We've got enough of those already.
