#Apple is stating at @Curia that the #DMA obligation of "free-of-charge" interoperability imposes enormous burden to their rights. 馃
FSFE: No, actually Apple has a menu of choices:
馃敼Use or develop #OpenStandards;
馃敼use or develop proprietary solutions but refrain from using patents and copyrights to block interoperability; or
馃敼 not provide these non-interoperable features in the EU market.
鈿栵笍 The hearing at @Curia is now over!
We at 
FSFE are proud to have been there to remind the Court that #interoperability must not be hindered, and that regulating #Apple serves the public interest.
