Mobile World Live (MWL) brings you our top three picks of the week as the European Commission targeted Apple’s App Store policies, India wrapped up its latest 5G auction and five European operators updated their open RAN priorities.
European Commission accuses Apple of DMA violation
What happened: The European Commission (EC) opened a fresh investigation into whether Apple violated its Digital Markets Act (DMA) rules with its App Store policies.
Why it matters: The EC stated preliminary findings in an investigation into the tech giant’s compliance with the DMA regarding its App Store indicated Apple’s rules prevented developers from freely steering consumers to alternative channels for offers and content. TECHnalysis Research president and chief analyst Bob O’Donnell told Yahoo Finance Apple will have to make some tweaks to its policies ahead of the 25 March 2025 deadline because it is an “important enough market that they’re going to have to follow some of these requirements that the EU is putting into place”.
