Is the EU forcing Apple to allow sideloading and open up their ecosystem the right thing to do? (alien.top)

I feel it is the way to go, to an extent. The EU forcing Apple to adopt everything that android has would make everything too saturated. iPhone clones would rise to an all time high, and there wouldn't be many things to differentiate between iOS and android. Though I am quite interested in what others have to say.

The majority of people will never sideload anything anyway...aside from a cracked YouTube.. YouTube music and Spotify apps I don't sideload anything else onto my iPhone

My work phone is a 13Pro and i really hate how there is no easy way to block ads. Only way is expensive apps or premium subscriptions.

So im happy to live in the EU, hopefully there is a future with some new apps coming to iOs.

I'd like sideloading, but ultimately I'm against a bunch of old government geezers telling Apple (or any other tech company) how to run their business.

Drop all rules against tech companies, we know they should rule the world. With that attidude we would still pay 20cent for each message we sent to some one.

Why do you think, those old white man do not sit in the apple company to only care how to make more money. Do you really think, Apple drives innovation with locking everyone out of their system and forcing people to stay in their world.
