Apple has a month to comply with EU antisteering mandate, or get fined again
"Originally, Apple prevented developers from telling consumers about ways to make payments for services and features that didn't go through Apple's systems."
This is not a factual statement. Apple prevented them from doing so in the app and in the App Store. But companies like Spotify, Amazon and Netflix were still able to get customers to make payments online regardless. Those companies could use customer sign-up information to communicate and there was also the more generalized exposure for customers via web advertising, web search and web sites.

President Trump lashes out at China for violating new trade agreement
The key point, which is made in this article, is that the 1st Trump administration withdrew from NAFTA/TPP trade agreements and did new deals which were publicly promoted by Donald Trump as being significantly better than what they replaced. So it doesn't make the slightest bit of sense that Trump's 2nd administration is claiming trade with China, Mexico and Canada constitutes an "emergency". On top of that, use of the IEEPA to levy tariffs is blatantly unconstitutional going by the standard that the Supreme Court already set with the Biden administration's attempt at using the HEROES Act to forgive student loan debt. -

This can make it problematic for the courts to enforce rulings against the wishes of a sitting President. -
