Apple appeals its $580 million EU penalty.
This expected development follows App Store changes being introduced in June to avoid being slapped with additional fines for violating anti-steering rules under the EU’s DMA. Apple spokesperson Peter Ajemian sent the following statement to The Verge:
“Today we filed our appeal because we believe the European Commission’s decision—and their unprecedented fine—go far beyond what the law requires. As our appeal will show, the EC is mandating how we run our store and forcing business terms which are confusing for developers and bad for users. We implemented this to avoid punitive daily fines and will share the facts with the Court.”
