I understand wanting USB-C, and its honestly a great move, but with the EU demanding Apple to implement RCS, and sideloading, i cant imagine them ever doing that. one of apples biggest selling points is how secure they are, and the experience using the iPhone with other iPhone users. can apple just outright say no and stop selling devices there? would that raise the cost/lower the availability of devices for other countries?

im super interested in this so i also want to know. if you were in apples position, what would you do?
