Apple has warned that the “rules of European Union-style” proposed by the UK competition Watchdog are bad for users and are bad for developers “.
It says that the European Union laws – which have sought to make it easier for small firms to compete with large technology – resulting in some Apple features and increased for European users.
This argues that Britain’s risks are at risk of similar hold-ups, if the competition and markets move forward with plans designed to open markets, the regulator says that Apple and Google are very dominant.
The CMA told the BBC that it rejected the characterization of Apple of the UK competition rules, arguing that they were separated from those in the European Union and helped businesses in innovation and grow.
International technical regulation was rapidly criticized by President Donald Trump.
He did not specify which countries he was unhappy with, but attacked the rules that he claimed that “was designed for loss, or discriminated against an American technology” Online post On Monday.
He demanded the nations “Honor to the United States and our amazing technical companies or, consider the results!”
The US President has written that all countries with digital taxes, laws, rules, or regulations were “on notice” that such “discriminatory functions” were not lifted tariffs and restrictions on access to American technology.
CMA, however, argues that its intervention will be good for users and UK app developers.
In July, it was found that “about 90–100% UK mobile devices ran on” Apple or Google’s mobile platforms, which means that the firms had “an effective duality”.
As a result, he said that he would need Apple and Google to change his services – for example app manufacturers would have to “steer” users for the payment system outside Apple’s own app store.
This has now given companies an opportunity to answer and will take a final decision in October.
In his new statement, Apple argues that the CMA’s approach “reduces our users to expect privacy and safety security, disrupts our ability to expect, and forces us to give foreign competitors to give their technology for free.”
According to Apple, the proposed changes of Watchdogs repeat the mistakes made by the European Union in the enforcement of their technical competition law The Digital Markets Act (DMA).
Apple has He was fined To break DMA.
CMA wants the UK app manufacturer to be able to use and exchange data with Apple’s mobile technology – something called “Interoperability”
Without it, app manufacturers cannot create a full range of innovative products and services, arguing.
Apple Claims under the European Union’s Interoperability Rules that it has received 100 requests – from some large technical rivals – apple cannot reach the Apple itself, including sensitive information, demanding access to sensitive user data.
This argues that the rules are effectively allowing other firms to demand their data and intellectual property for free.
However, the CMA argues that, unlike the European Union, it focuses on ensuring the difference of special aspects of Apple technology such as digital wallets and watches, so that UK developers can use them to create an innovative new app.
Apple also argues that the app will open the door for scams to enable developers to enable users to enable users to enable users and will threaten the safety of users.
In response to Apple’s criticism, CMA wrote that the rules of the UK competition work fundamentally for the European Union:
“They are designed to help the UK businesses, including our affluent app developer economy, innovation and grows, while ensuring that the innovations being introduced in other countries do not miss,” a statement said.
“Compete more and more on mobile platforms does not require to reduce privacy, security or intellectual property, and as we carefully consider the UK-specific stages, we will ensure that it is not,” it said.
