PANews reported on June 24 that according to Jinshi, the European Commission preliminarily ruled that Apple's online app store rules violated the EU's Digital Markets Act. The European Commission believes that Apple's rules hinder application developers from freely guiding consumers to obtain discounts and content through other channels. On the same day, the European Commission also launched a new non-compliance investigation against Apple. According to the Digital Markets Act, if a violation occurs, the European Commission can impose a fine on Apple, with the fine amount up to 10% of the company's total global turnover.
