It can't work unless Apple is allowed to sell phones without a warranty, which is illegal in most countries.

It doesn't matter what the EU wants, it's not legally credible that a company can be forced to support a product with a warranty when the end user can modify it enough to brick it.

The courts would almost certainly rule against such a law, that forces both a warranty and openness, if challenged.
