As an American, all I can say is thank you Europe for continuing to have sensible legislation that forces these companies to have decent policies worldwide if only to comply with EU laws. I only use Windows on my company provided laptop but just because I don't need to worry about it personally doesn't mean that I shouldn't care about how it affects others.
We're basically dependent on the EU and California to have any rights as consumers at all.
That's pretty crazy when I think about it. And I'm from within the EU.
Don't forget California's emissions standards effectively forcing car manufacturers to make more efficient vehicles for the entire NA market!
I, for one, am shocked that they didn't localize this. The USB C port on the iPhone made sense, they would've had to manufacturer two different devices. This is a software thing.
I also thought for sure that the iPhone would go portless instead of implementing the USB C port, using magsafe and some new proprietary air drop feature. Shows what I know.
