Apple, which has been circulating rumors that it will impose a $ 46 million fine by the South Korean government in the past days, is now waiting for the decision of the Dutch government.
According to the news from Reuters, the Dutch government may face a serious sanction for Apple forcing applications and games to use its own systems for micropayments.
Apple may be penalized by the Dutch government this time
The Brazilian government, which issued an official statement recently, announced that they would fine Apple $ 1.9 million for not having a charger and headphones in iPhone boxes. The Brazilian Consumer Protection Association stated that they penalized Apple from the upper limit for the iPhone 12, which was released last year, and a penalty of $ 1.9 million will be given after the iPhone 13.
According to new information from the Reuters front, Apple is now facing a penalty from the Dutch government… The Dutch security committee has asked Apple to make a change in the in-app payment system and to get 30% of each purchase. He wants flexibility in the matter.
For Apple, which faced sanctions in the first place by many countries, the situation may look different this time. As a matter of fact, the Dutch Council of Consumer Protection and Market Surveillance requested Apple to change its policies instead of penalizing them in the first place. The first demand from the Netherlands is that the in-app commission, which was increased from 15% to 30%, should be reduced to a more reasonable level.
There was no official statement from the Apple front, as in previous lawsuits and ultimatums. So what do you think about the subject? Do not forget to share your views with us in the comments section.
