    Italian antitrust authority launches investigation into Apple over fair access to third-party cloud services

    意大利竞争与市场管理局(AGCM)6月16日宣布,对苹果公司展开调查,以评估其是否遵守欧盟《数字市场法》(DMA)有关互操作性的要求。根据《数字市场法》,苹果需确保第三方消费者云服务提供商能够免费、有效地与iOS和iPadOS系统实现互操作,并在平等条件下获得与苹果iCloud相同的软硬件功能访问权限。意大利竞争管理局表示,已有迹象显示第三方云服务商可能未获得与iCloud同等的功能支持。(界面)
