Big Tech needs to knows its place. Yes especially you Apple. Make sideloading available globally.

And stop charging a "Core Technology Fee". And allow JIT compiling for non-browsers so emulators for newer systems can perform well.

Wow. I have no idea what a "Core Technology Fee" is. Guess I'll stick with Android.

I would have never expected the EFF to use a lame click-bait headline like this one.

The article is ok (summary of the current state of things) but the title is completely out of place.

Guess they had a visiting editor from The Daily Beast in charge of headlines for a day 🤷

In general the article seems to be a summary of current legislative actions that are ongoing between big tech and EU.
Though in the article it's worded with the much more fitting 'game of chicken between EU and Big Tech' rather than something like the title, but I guess "drop dead has a better ring to it"...

I general the article has a lightly optimistic tone, which I very deeply hope holds true.
