Apple has an Epic retreat
 

Turns out the EU was serious

Fruity cargo-cult Apple has had second thoughts about banning Epic Games developer account for the “crime” of interpreting the new Digital Markets Act (DMA) in a way that made Jobs’ Mob look bad.

If Apple had gone ahead with its move, Epic could not have brought its Games Store and Fortnite to iOS devices in Europe.

Writing in its Bog, Epic said that Jobs’ Mob had done a U-turn after telling it and the European Commission that they would reinstate Epic’s account.

“This shows that Apple is scared of the new EU law that forces them to let third-party app stores, like ours, on their devices.”

The Digital Markets Act (DMA), says: "The gatekeeper [that would be Apple] shall allow and technically enable the installation and effective use of third-party software applications or software application stores using, or interoperating with, its operating system and allow those software applications or software application stores to be accessed by means other than the relevant core platform services of that gatekeeper."
