EU will require Apple to open up iMessage (2022)
This sounds nice, but when you really think about the consequences it really is not.<p>Isn&#x27;t this going to kill features that only some apps have or offer? What if one day Signal, Telegram or WhatsApp want to implement something &quot;different&quot; that could make messaging better but this policy is making things harder to implement because it would be impossible to make it interoperate with other messaging apps?<p>I don&#x27;t get why you would regulate such a thing. I get the feeling that people here enjoy seeing big tech companies &quot;owned&quot; by big governments without actually realising that it is actually going to make things worse, that&#x27;s what regulation does in most cases.
