According to Apple, only 38 developers have applied to add such links — out of roughly 65,000 that could.

I never applied a value judgement.
The suggestion that European courts are universally free from manipulation, political meddling or influence is a fairytale. They are leagues better than US courts in this regard, but again we can be sure a megacorp like apple is pulling every lever at their disposal
I agree but that has no bearing on my first comment. Common law and civil law are two fundamentally different systems. And Apple seems to always operate as if they’re dealing with a US court, being petty and throwing tamtruns, trying to cheat and weasel their way out. Sure the European courts have their share of corruption, but Apple doesn’t seem to have found said levers yet.
Mega corporations aren’t magical all powerful infallible entities either. They’re just a bunch of entitled twats with too much money. They’re no better at making decisions as the average Joe.
Sure. But as far as I can tell the only lever at their disposal is to drag their feet and try to delay compliance as long as possible.
It’s an effective strategy, but it’s stupid. They’re making a lot of people angry and that is never a good long term strategy.
As far as you’re aware yes. I’ve met some of these people (not at apple, but at another megacorp) and there is a whole world of manipulation and dealmaking that never hits the papers
