Tim Apple, Engage!

Tim Apple, Engage!

While we already know that various Big Tech executives had been kissing the ring of giving a ring to Donald Trump ahead of the election, now that it's over and somehow Trump returned, how fast will those same executives be tripping over each other to get him back on the line?

First and foremost on that list should probably be Apple. As the EU is once again threatening to do EU things to the company – and soon, clearly trying to set up a DMA fine as outgoing European Commission competition commissioner (that's a mouthful) Margrethe Vestager is set to leave her post this month. While I thought a comically vague threat back in September may be her last stand against the company, this fine seems like it will be her attempt to have the last laugh.

Apple may now have someone who can help with that...
