Fine, but why we should always wait for something to become (evenatually) a problem ?
Comment on Apple won’t be forced to open up iMessage by EU
TheGrandNagus@lemmy.world 8 months agoOk, agreed with how apple act, but iMessage won’t become a problem here, because nobody uses it.

Stop saying it’s going to be a problem, there’s zero evidence that it will be. iMessage is dead in the water.
Additionally, this law is restricting large chat apps that can dictate the market. iMessage can’t do that. It makes no sense to cover them here.

Ok, I understant that. I am not saying that iMessage will be a problem, I am saying that if it will be ever become a problem, then you are will be in a rush to fix it when you could have simply prevented it.

The law should apply to all chat apps in my opinion.

Not sure where you are in Europe but here lots of people use iMessage. If you have an iPhone and want to text another iPhone, it’s usually iMessage.
If they don’t have an iPhone then people fall back to WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger or hell even Discord…

But you wouldn’t text another iPhone. You’d WhatsApp the person.

Not enough people use iMessage for it to be covered by this law. It’s not large enough of a messenger.
