Apple Intelligence, iPhone Mirroring to Mac, and SharePlay Screen Sharing won’t be available in the EU

Apple announced that 3 major features -- Apple Intelligence, iPhone Mirroring to macOS Sequoia, and SharePlay Screen Sharing will not be available in the European Union, when iOS 18 and macOS Sequoia ship later this year due to regulatory concerns relating to compliance with the Digital Markets Act

Apple said in a statement it would compromise “privacy and security" because of EU's DMA Act
Apple also did NOT explain which part of the DMA is getting affected.

Since Apple Intelligence uses AI, it's understandable that it might violate some GDPR or the DMA rules. But what does iPhone mirroring and Share Play has to do with DMA ????

So, it seems like Apple is intentionally restriction features as they are mad over DMA and it's Apple's way to say "F*CK YOU" to the EU

Here's why iPhone Mirroring Won't be Available in the EU

Apple announced that Apple Intelligence, iPhone Mirroring to macOS Sequoia, and SharePlay Screen Sharing will not be available in the EU due to compromises on “privacy and security" because of the EU's Digital Markets Act (DMA)

However, the real reason is that, the EU will force Apple to open the API that they use for iPhone mirroring
Releasing the API would open up the Apple eco-system & it would also be beneficial for both consumers and developers since it will open the possibility for Windows PC OEMs to make an iPhone mirroring client as well

Apple also excused "security" concerns when in 2022, EU accused Apple of thwarting competition since ONLY Apple Pay supports Tap to Function using NFC

But now Apple has agreed to provide 3rd-party developers (in the EU only) with open access to the ‌iPhone‌'s NFC & even defaulting of preferred payment apps, access to authentication features such as FaceID.

Apple secretly held a meeting with TSMC to secure all of its 2nm capacity

Apple's Chief Operating Officer Jeff Williams reportedly visited TSMC in Taiwan and had a secret meeting with TSMC President Wei Zhejia. This meeting is said to have focused on the development of AI chips and a contract to secure TSMC’s first batch of 2nm production capacity.

Some rumors suggested that TSMC may be forced to delay full-scale mass production of its 2nm process until 2026 due to technical challenges associated with the first-time application of Gate-All-Around (GAA) technology. These rumors were dispelled by TSMC's Vice President, who then claimed that "the yield when applying GAA has reached 90% of the target"

This isn’t the first time Apple has made such a move. When TSMC first started producing its 3nm process, Apple swooped in to contract that first batch of 3nm production as well.
Apple’s A17 Pro chip uses 3nm tech and the company’s M4 chip uses an advanced version of this 3nm technology.
