Are you suggesting that Apple aren't the people in charge of iPhones? You might like to pass that on to the EU, they're worried about iPhones and they appear to have accidentally decided that probing Apple will help!
I'm sure the EU is trying to regulate how China manufactures iPhones too, if that is some sort of consolation prize to you. And my response is the same - there is a reason it is happening in China. The reason is EU regulations.
> ...market dominance might, possibly, be due to something other than people liking it.
Case in point; the market dominanace of Apple in Europe is primarily because EU regulators are technophobic. North America can manage to design a smartphone. Asia can design smartphones in plural. Europe can manage the Nokia 1100 which is not nothing. Well done Europe. But not enough to compete with serious players.
