Who would’ve thought? This isn’t going to fly with the EU.

Article 5.3 of the Digital Markets Act (DMA): “The gatekeeper shall not prevent business users from offering the same products or services to end users through third-party online intermediation services or through their own direct online sales channel at prices or conditions that are different from those offered through the online intermediation services of the gatekeeper.”

    Uhh no. If you think that, you’re not paying attention at all. Most of the main feed of Lemmy is raging at Google right now and Microsoft is only catching a break because Bill Gates recently got together with ultra wealthy people writing a letter asking to be taxed.

        We’ve been pushing people to lessen their reliance on Google for ages now. We’ve even been developing a replacement software store Suite called FUTO! The difference between Apple and Google though, is that Apple’s users continue on despite Apple being so very obviously evil. Google is at least being a creep about it.

          Love that you yourself used a youtube link. I find it very interesting how judgmental people almost always put themselves outside the measures they apply to other people.
