Apple likely facing antitrust action in the UK over default internet browser settings

The UK's Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has provisionally concluded that Apple abuses its control over iPhone apps by making Safari the default web browser. This finding echoes a similar conclusion made by the EU last year, which led to Apple allowing users to choose their default browser during the setup of a new iPhone. The CMA also found that a revenue-sharing agreement between Google and Apple reduces their financial incentives to compete in mobile browsers on iOS. However, there is no longer an issue with Apple's monopoly on cloud gaming apps as the company has since changed its policy.
