I understand wanting USB-C, and its honestly a great move, but with the EU demanding Apple to implement RCS, and sideloading, i cant imagine them ever doing that. one of apples biggest selling points is how secure they are, and the experience using the iPhone with other iPhone users. can apple just outright say no and stop selling devices there? would that raise the cost/lower the availability of devices for other countries?

im super interested in this so i also want to know. if you were in apples position, what would you do?

    Well, sideloading is coming to the EU in 2024 (I read the other day).

    The RCS story is weird because most people in Europe use WhatsApp because you don’t get text bundles. My team at work live in Belgium, France, Luxembourg and I’m in Spain. Two guys are from Romania and 1 from Italy. Occasionally they work from there. WhatsApp works regardless.
