Apple will be fined by EU antitrust regulators under landmark rules aimed at curbing the power of big technology companies, people familiar with the matter said on Tuesday, making it the first company to be sanctioned.
In June, regulators accused the iPhone maker of violating EU technical rules. The charges against Apple are the first brought by the Commission under its Digital Markets Act (DMA).
Apple also faces an investigation into imposing new fees on app developers.
Violations of the DMA may result in fines of up to 10% of annual global turnover.
Apple and the European Commission did not immediately respond to Reuters’ requests for comment.
