Europeans using Apple, Google and other major tech platforms woke to a new reality Thursday as a landmark law imposed tough new competition rules on the companies — changing European Union citizens’ experience with phones, apps, browsers and more.

The new EU regulations force sweeping changes on some of the world’s most widely used tech products, including Apple’s app store, Google search and messaging platforms, including Meta’s WhatsApp. And they mark a turning point in a global effort by regulators to bring tech giants to heel after years of allegations that the companies harmed competition and left consumers worse off.

Man, hate reading these kinds of articles that feel like a high school essay with a minimum page requirement. They pad out the article by repeating the title in each paragraph, just worded differently, without divulging the actual content till the end.

When I see things like this it’s nice to then come back and divulge in the comments what the meat is.
