EU Says Decision Not to Launch Siri AI in Europe Is Apple's Alone

Makes me wonder which part(s) of the "product" violates users' rights so grossly they didn't even bother trying.
The DMA basically says, "if Siri can work with your personal data, you have to allow the AI assistants from Zuck, Elon and Honest Achmed the same access".
At the risk of sounding like an LLM: it's not a privacy thing, it's a competition thing.
Personally, I'd be mildly interested in all the dark patterns Meta would bring to bear to finally get at Apple users' most private data. Even though it'd damage my trust in humanity even further, I guess.
As a european i can say they can fucking keep it. The shitty implementation and low coupling of its AI was a USP for Apple in my view.
