Apple and Meta's DMA penalties moved Brussels from warning to remedy supervision

The useful signal is not that Apple and Meta once faced Digital Markets Act investigations. The European Commission has already moved those files into enforcement and remedy supervision: a EUR 500 million Apple penalty for App Store steering restrictions, a EUR 200 million Meta penalty for its advertising-consent model, and continuing pressure over whether redesigned terms actually change platform economics. Apple Inc., Meta Platforms, Inc. and the European Commission are the real institutions in the story; the Act is the policy frame that gives the regulator leverage.
