Apple has released a scaremongering, self-serving warning aimed at the Australian government, claiming that Australians will be overrun by a parade of digital horribles if Australia follows the European Union’s lead and regulates Apple’s “walled garden.” […]
A little annoying to track down the sources.
The EFF article links to a Neowin article that then links to a Guardian article which then links to the Gov’s proposal paper; but only vaguely mention’s Apple’s reply submission that you have to find yourself.
Only briefly glanced at Apple’s reply (sorry), yeah it’s what you’d expect. Take away our power and our business can’t protect you from bad people that don’t pay us.
Fwiw the government paper is linked elsewhere in the EFF article, but regardless it is odd that even after playing source-centipede, nobody actually had a link back to Apple’s actual response. Thanks for tracking it down!

Woops, sorry missed that. Thankyou :)
