Apple has officially appealed the €500 million fine from the EU. The European commission had found the company guilty of breaching the Digital Markets Act in April 2025.

According to the DMA, gatekeepers such as Apple should allow apps on the App Store to allow alternate payment options. Apple's scare tactics, which warned users about the risks of going to third party sources meant that it failed to meet these rules, and unsurprisingly it was accused of anti-steering practices. Meta was also slapped with a fine of €500 million for violating antitrust rules regarding its controversial way to offer ad-free services on Facebook, Instagram.
