    I feel incredibly proud do to be Australian right now.

    I like how the court’s declarations are punchy, factual, and dare I say obvious. I’d suggest giving section 1 a read.

    There’s going to be a million “what ifs”, from walled gardens to security to ‘you don’t have to use iOS’, but it’s blatantly obvious this is all about competition and money.

    That’s good news for people who enjoy the freedom of using the device they own in the way they want.

    Having (alt store) presence in Australia, Brazil, EU and Japan is in fact more than enough for many indies - one can even begin to imagine ignoring the US as a region.

    This is a massive win for independent Ai.

    I want to run so my agents have a local sandbox on device.

      Does this grant any of that?

      Truly a universal concern for 99.9% of people who buy an iPhone.

        nowhere they've said that this is a win for iPhone users.

    Huge decision, maybe toughest Apple's seen yet.

      They will appeal.

        The Federal Court is already Australia's second-highest court. The only higher level is the High Court, and like the US Supreme Court, they're quite picky about what appeals they'll accept.

        "Apple has lost major, high-profile appeals before the European Union courts in two primary landmark matters, while also winning an earlier round in one of them."
