JAKARTA "Apple is trying to comply with the Digital Market Law (DMA) in the European Union (EU) by allowing crowders and third parties. However, this policy has received a lot of criticism.

Some time ago, Mozilla Spokesman Damiano DeMonte admitted that he was disappointed with Apple's new policy. The reason is, this implementation only applies to the EU so that the developer of the crowd must develop two browsers for iPhone devices.

The first browser is free of Apple's WebKit, while the rest of the crowds still have to use basic machines that support Safari. According to Mozilla, this burden shows that Apple wants to hinder the competition of the iOS crowders.

Vice President and General Manager of Google Chrome, Parisa Tabriz, agrees with Mozilla's statement. According to Parisa, Apple's new policy shows that the iPhone developer company is not serious in supporting the browser.

Very agrees with Mozilla. Apple is not serious in supporting the browserweb or engine options on iOS. Their strategy is too restrictive and will not provide a real choice for the browser developer," Parisa said through its official social media.

Parisa's response shows that browser developers don't like Apple's latest idea. Not all companies are willing to develop a different crowd for just one operating system (OS) like iOS.

With the emergence of this new policy, developers are forced to manage two different crowders. This will create losses in terms of efficiency and funds because developers also have to spend funds to maintain the crowder.
