Hmmm... 18,250M per year or 18.25B per year. For a trillion $ company, that's 0.18%. Wasn't that supposed to be more?

Even in that case, 18.25B is 1.8% of 1T, not 0.18%.

Namely, the fact that Apple charges a "Core Technology Fee" for developers who want to "steer" users to offers outside of its App Store. There's also an additional 3% that goes to Apple if a developer uses its payment processor.

Sometimes. But sometimes (like next week for example) they are also trying to implement mass surveillance of all EU-Citizens' private communication.

Eu is basically a bipolar legal monkey, sometimes they so something good. Other times they do chat control

Paradoxically, due to these charges, EU profit from the consumer rights.
