Apple has been fined 5 billion euros

 Apple has been fined 5 billion euros in the Netherlands for creating a monopoly. The main reason for this was that the company demanded significant amounts in the App Store commissions.

 Apple has been fined in many European countries for creating a monopoly. This time, the Cupertino-based company was fined in the Netherlands. Apple has previously been sued and fined 5 million euros for violating the country's rules on alternative payment systems. Now the company has been sued again, and this time a higher fine will be imposed. The plaintiffs allege that Apple's 30% commission on applications sold in the App Store puts developers in a difficult position. As a result, the selling price of applications increases. It is said that such a high commission ultimately affects users. For this reason, Apple is required to pay 5 billion euros in compensation. Apple has refused to make changes to the App Store following a previous lawsuit.
