Of particular interest to OWA was the interoperability requirements, as we have argued that the CMA should impose an equivalent to Article 6(7) of the DMA.

> So if Apple denies your request to access AirDrop (or whatever) because allowing you to compete isn’t “in line with its commercial strategy and priorities”, that’s OK, according to commitments which the CMA thinks “could address our concerns”?

Adam F's music is pretty much unavailable via streaming services (god knows why). It took me 20 yrs to find the albums Colours and KAOS, but now I have them. On CD. (And also safely backed up and available as lossless flac via my Plex server).

Trump regeert als een corrupte tiran met een fascistisch draaiboek in de hand, zegt hoofdredacteur @robwijnberg.bsky.social. Wie dat overdreven vindt, is óf gevaarlijk ongeïnformeerd, óf gevaarlijk naïef.
