I smell a ten-figure fine cooking in the kitchen of the EU.

Governments are going about this the wrong way. The problem isn’t with app stores. The problem is that you can’t install a different OS on your phone (or current Mac, or iPad).

The problem is that the stock OS is a walled garden. No common user will flash their phone.

I'm waiting for the EU to eventually say "Ok nevermind, this is clearly a company that isn't going to be compliant. If not compliant by X date this company will no longer be allowed to operate here"
Or a hella massive fine for blatant waste of regulators time plus non-compliance.

I’ve been saying for the past two years that Apple should stop doing business in the EU, but every time that I bring that up someone points out the manufacturer of the chip making machine is based in the EU therefore no one can pull out.
Gross.

On machines where it's trivial to do so (such as pcs), how many real life users (as opposed to forum haunting online geeks) will install another os?

Gross.
EU is also the second largest economy after the US in the world. Vacating the region would cost way more than compliance.

How many real life users are going to install software from somewhere other than the built in app store on their phone?

Why not both?
