I don't understand. How do you see disabling a feature that few people use leading to riling people up so the EU reverse itself?

I don't get it either, but that seems to be the plan. Either peer pressure or they are just dragging their feet in inevitable litigation. Trying to get a few more years of max monetization before a niche of users and apps exist outside of IOS (without jailbreaking, if that's still a thing).
