Potential penalties for infringements include heavy fines of up to 10% of their total global turnover. ## Content The European Commission has launched investigations into Google, Meta (formerly Facebook), and Apple for potential violations of the Digital Markets Act (DMA). The DMA is a pro-competition law aimed at creating a fair digital market. Alphabet, the parent company of Google, is being probed for its ability to steer users outside of app stores and Google's search result preference. Apple's activities on the App Store are under scrutiny for potential anti-steering practices. Meta's 'pay or consent' model is also being investigated. If these tech giants are found to have infringed upon the DMA, they may face heavy fines of up to 10% of their total global turnover. The investigations will focus on aspects such as anti-steering, self-preferencing, and the 'pay or consent' model. Compliance with the DMA rules is of utmost importance to ensure a fair and competitive digital market. ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Don’t just attend KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon, Merge Forward your experience\!](https://daily.dev/posts/don-t-just-attend-kubecon-cloudnativecon-merge-forward-your-experience--l0rpp73x8) · CNCF · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [Announcing H2 2026 KCDs](https://daily.dev/posts/announcing-h2-2026-kcds-m96goajm1) · CNCF · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [Two months of Open Community Groups](https://daily.dev/posts/two-months-of-open-community-groups-asf52zhbs) · CNCF · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [CNCF Unveils Schedule for KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon Europe 2026](https://daily.dev/posts/cncf-unveils-schedule-for-kubecon-cloudnativecon-europe-2026-ikhcoa5cb) · CNCF · 2 upvotes · 0 comments - [CNCF Debuts KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon Japan 2026 Schedule](https://daily.dev/posts/cncf-debuts-kubecon-cloudnativecon-japan-2026-schedule-xp5pyudub) · CNCF · 1 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#google](https://daily.dev/tags/google), [#apple](https://daily.dev/tags/apple) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/eu-launches-investigations-into-apple-google-and-meta-for-dma-non-compliance-zkocsiazq) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"EU Launches Investigations into Apple, Google, and Meta for DMA Non-Compliance","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/eu-launches-investigations-into-apple-google-and-meta-for-dma-non-compliance-zkocsiazq","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/eu-launches-investigations-into-apple-google-and-meta-for-dma-non-compliance-zkocsiazq"},"datePublished":"2024-03-25T13:03:58.392Z","dateModified":"2024-03-25T14:45:39.525Z","description":"Investigations have been launched by the EU Commission into Google, Meta, and Apple for potential violations of the Digital Markets Act (DMA).
