The Digital Markets Act is in force What happens now?

I didn't know about the "free of charge" clause. Apple's Core Technology Fee will be absolutely destroyed.

I’m very excited about WhatsApp having to interoperate with other messengers. As far as I know this starts Monday. But I also read that most other messengers are not interested as it would hurt their users privacy.<p>Does anyone know if interoperability with XMPP or Matrix will be possible?

A bit off topic, but does anyone know how &quot;EU&quot; only features&#x2F;changes are determined? I&#x27;m Canadian by citizenship but live in Europe. My Apple account is still tied to Canada mainly due to having my Canadian bank&#x2F;credit cards tied to that account. Would I need to officially change countries? Start a new Apple account? Does it matter that my phone was purchased in Canada? I&#x27;m hoping that it might be tied to the SIM card somehow, since I have a European carrier, obviously.
