I trust the EU with these matters, more so than any other government.

So you expect the EU to not allow Apple to ban the use of private methods? Are they going to also ban Apple from not changing them?

What happens when Apple updates the operating system and starts throwing up a big dialog box every time an app accessed a private API that says “the publisher of this app needs to update their poorly written app.”?

What next? Is the EU going to also ban language makers from having public and private functions?
