Will Apple Be Banned From EU?

See if they cave and undo their greedy MFI propriety USB C.

Or will EU cave?

I know Apple haters will say who cares

When I bought my 13, it came with a wall charger that was different. I didn't care because it still had the same port on the phone.
Seems like Apple is trying to cut out all of the "after market" manufactures doing this.

I thought USB-C is USB-C?

My iPad uses the same cable as my Galaxy phone.

It seems to me the EU is outlawing technical innovation. Requiring USB-C right now seems great, but in 5 or 10 years it will be hopelessly outdated.

They will have an "authorized" chip built in

Iphone will disable non Apple compliant usb chargers, cables, etc

Does defeat the purpose of standardization which is what the EU mandates

We will see if EU or Apple gives up
