"The dating-site company said it’s pleased to settle the matter without paying any fine."
Of course they are pleased. Wtf 🤯
Wondering what @EDPS has to say about broking user data without consent.

In a significant win for smaller browsers, the open web, and the 🇪🇺EU’s Digital Markets Act (DMA), Google has agreed to place the browser selected through the EU browser choice screen directly in the Pixel homescreen hotseat (replacing Chrome).@owa @EUCommission Due to the non-existent documentation of such matters it is hard to tell. I'd have to double check the HyperOS 3 situation with a factory reset device, which I currently do not have the time for. But I am pretty certain HyperOS comes pre-installed with both Chrome and Mi Browser, both of which in HyperOS 3.0.4.0 cannot be uninstalled. Chrome can be disabled but remains on device, while currently I can't find a disable option for Mi Browser. I can uninstall updates, force stop and that's that. I am not even sure a browser choice screen is in place currently in HyperOS.

The same logic applies. Do you think those vendors will have to be sued to take action?
Thanks for the director's cut edition of the DMA hearing. Those were painful to watch with all those twisted arguments brought up by the big-tech lawyers. Thanks @EUCommission for doing your job
