A new mandate from the EU may force Apple to open AirDrop and AirPlay, among other features, to Android and other platforms.

EU regulation has led to Apple being forced to open up iOS in ways that many never expected, but it’s not done just yet. In an effort to ensure “effective interoperability” with other platforms, the EU wants Apple to make native features of iOS being compatible with Android, including the likes of AirDrop and more.

    Idk how I feel about this. Right to repair was a good step, but it’s just ging way too far now. Government intervention is completely inappropriate at this point.
