    Imagine if 99% of text messages sent were via iMessage, and the EU kept the same ruling.

    If 99% of messages were sent via iMessage the ruling would have been different. if it ever fulfils the criteria needed to be considered gatekeepers, then they will be designed as such.

      I’m sure the rule would be different. My point was mostly to say this is in no way bad for Apple

        It’s not bad for apple, but iMessage is so irrelevant here in Germany, even the most die hard Apple fans will use WhatsApp no matter what.
