Illegal Anti-Competitive / Cartel behaviour, yes??
Apple, you are only exempt-from-law UNTIL the regulators decide to do their jobs honestly.
THEN, you're hosed.

I mean, even the EU already exempted iMessage from the new rules.
Because they already follow a standard. SMS and MMS.
And with them adopting RCS? There’s nothing they can force to open iMessage.
They exempted iMessage because it's not big in Europe. If it were as big as in the US it would've fallen under the DMA.
Exactly I don't know a single person in Europe who uses or cares about iMessages. This is in the US only.
I have seen some iphone users use it with some other iphone users. But it's very rare.
TIL iMessage is still a thing.
