It's good scrutiny to have, but I'm surprised that there are now at leat 3 users here that really believe that Apple reversed course in 3 days out of the goodness of their hearts. I can't even get a response from many customer services in 3 days. No company thst big turns on a dime without extreme arm twisting.

Can confirm. I've been waiting for Apple's developer support to reply to me since before this debacle. I finally got a response 2 hours ago – after I resolved my issue – that stated they are busy right now.

> EPIC is forced to accept that Apple is complying with the DMA.

No they don't. They are absolutely still able to start a lawsuit, as is the EU.

We likely won't have to wait more than a couple weeks to see the lawsuits filed.

until that lawsuit is filed and we have a judgement, yes, they are.

> until that lawsuit is filed

So then this would be the process of not accepting Apple's interpretation of the DMA.

Thats my point. That is the exact process for which they would be rejecting Apple's interpretation.

So no, they don't have to accept Apple's interpretation, instead they can go through this process.
