Key Points

  • One of the potential changes is putting an end to self-preferencing.
  • Companies like Apple and Google will also have to allow users to uninstall apps that have originally come with their devices.
  • Failure to comply could result in fines as high as 10% of the companies’ annual turnover worldwide.
  • The remedies could ultimately include forcing companies to disinvest if they breach the rules systematically.
