EU's New Demand on Apple: Stop Geo-locking and Embrace Global Access
The European Union has told Apple to stop geo-locking, where apps and services vary in different countries — entirely ignoring decades of laws and practices by other industries that have nothing to do with the App Store.
The European Union (EU) has demanded that Apple stop geo-locking apps and services in different countries. The new demand requires EU users to have the same interface as other countries, use credit cards from different countries and download apps not available in their home country. This issue is complicated due to international rights agreements and varying tax laws in each country.
