Apple vs EU Commission: the FSFE intervenes to safeguard Free Software (Details)

The Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) has officially allowed the FSFE to intervene in the litigation brought by Apple against the European Commission to avoid being designated as a ‘gatekeeper’ under the Digital Markets Act (DMA). The company has put forward an aggressive policy against Software Freedom and interoperability, seeking to deter the enforcement of the DMA – a law dedicated to increase fairness and contestability in digital markets by regulating the economic behaviour of very large tech corporations. The FSFE aims to protect Free Software against monopolistic corporate control.
