On: EU will require Apple to open up iMessage (2022)

[rTX5CMRXIfFG]

Apple has APIs for iMessage: https://register.apple.com/messages

You can even build a REST endpoint for Apple to invoke when your business receives a message from a user: https://register.apple.com/resources/messages/msp-rest-api/m...

Where's the playing dirty and undermining businesses part?

Wait, there must be more to it. If this is open to the competition to build on, what exactly is the EU forcing Apple to open up?

I'm too lazy to research why exactly Microsoft can't use this API to interface with iMessage and instead opting for a half-baked bluetooth solution, but there must be some hurdle.
