    Is Pebble a data hoarder? It doesn’t share anything but is restricted from full functionality. You’re using Apple rhetoric where they’ll conflate Meta with everyone else.

      Pebble should have access to my text messages and watching my notifications from other apps? No thanks. It can just mind its own business and be a watch.

        We don’t think like that in the EU, we like free markets more than anyone else 👍👍👍

          You do think like that, or we wouldn’t have cookie acceptance popups on every website that participates in data collection.

          This is just a grab at apple user data, and Apple actually standing up for its users.

            There is no law that requires cookie consent banners, it’s malicious compliance similar to this childish fit from Apple. It just shows that those companies are not interested in providing the best service they can, which is why we have to regulate them up to their tits.

              Exactly, these EU laws aren’t protecting anyone. Its just bully tactics to get Apple to open up to data hoarders or inconvenience its users by making them type 64 characters wifi passwords. Id argue its EU being childish.

              We can agree to disagree at this point, because I doubt we will see eye to eye.

                    It’s entirely up to the industry because EU didn’t mandate a specific connector, just that they have to agree on one. Very similar to what’s expected of Apple in regards to interoperability - implementation is entirely up to them as long as it’s compliant with EU law.
