Thoughts
If I were Tim Cook I'd withdraw from the EU. It's just not worth it. Apple has a product team, they don't need the EU to be their product
team. Apple makes proprietary software and hardware. You can't just pass a law that Apple needs to provide a solution that is "equally effective as the solution available to Apple." Apple developed a proprietary *chip* from the ground up for AirPods. And the EU is like, eh, you need to make an "equally effective solution" available to every other headphone manufacturer. And they mean on iOS, and they mean an API that is equivalent. But like.
I'm just anti-authority.
