Apple, Google Under Fire: UK Regulators Launch Bold Crackdown on Browser Monopoly
July 23 Britain's Competition and Markets Authority plans to designate Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) and Google (NASDAQ:GOOGL) with strategic market status over their mobile ecosystems. The CMA's inquiry found markets relating to mobile internet browsers were not working well for consumers or businesses. Apple's Safari and Google's Chrome together dominate browsing on iPhones and Android handsets. A strategic market status designation would allow the CMA to impose interventions requiring firms to follow specific behaviours to protect fair competition. CMA chief Sarah Cardell said the measures would help UK app developers remain at the forefront of innovation and ensure users receive a world?class experience. The regulator highlighted opportunities for more innovation and choice. A final decision is due by Oct. 22, with roadmaps published for potential next steps. Google's senior director for competition, Oliver Bethell, called the move disappointing and unwarranted and warned against rules that could impede growth in the UK. Apple said it was concerned the proposed steps might undermine the privacy and security protections users expect. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.

Factbox-What's in the EU's countermeasures to US tariffs?
By Julia Payne BRUSSELS (Reuters) -The European Union could hit the United States with counter-tariffs on 93 billion euros ($109 billion) worth of U.S. goods if the two sides fail to reach a trade deal by Washington's August 1 deadline for imposing import levies. The European Commission has prepared two sets of possible counter-tariffs, which would be combined into one and submitted for approval to EU members. They would not be imposed until August 7. Here is a breakdown of the two packages: EU COUNTERMEASURES TO STEEL, ALUMINIUM TARIFFS * EU members agreed a first package in April, but the measures were immediately suspended. * The package hits imports of U.S. goods worth 21 billion euros and is designed as a response to U.S. tariffs on steel and aluminium. * The package sets a 25% tariff on most of the imports, but some goods like diamonds would be hit by a lower duty of 10%. * The products include a range of agricultural goods: poultry, beef, fruit, cereals such as wheat, barley and oats, vegetable oils, corn (maize), rice and orange juice. * Other goods include home appliances such as dishwashers and vacuum cleaners, sanitary products like toilet paper and dental floss, and larger items like motorcycles and motor boats. * Soybeans and almonds are on this list, but would not be impacted until December 1. EU COUNTERMEASURES TO BASELINE, CAR TARIFFS * The second package is designed to respond to so-called "reciprocal" baseline tariffs, which U.S. President Donald Trump has threatened to raise from 10% to 30%, as well as to tariffs on cars and car parts, currently set at 25%. * The proposal was reduced to additional import duties on 72 billion euros of U.S. goods from an initial 95 billion euros. * No tariff level has been set. * The package targets 6.4 billion euros of agri-food products and 65.8 billion euros of industrial goods. * Industrial items in the package include aircraft and aircraft parts, cars and car parts, machinery, chemicals and plastics, medical devices and electrical equipment. * Food items in the package include bourbon, other spirits, wine, farm animals, bees, tobacco and pet food. * 159 items were deleted from the initial list after a public consultation, according to a Reuters comparison of the two lists. * Industrial products removed include all gas turbines, most magnets, all laboratory reagents, some photographic film, musical instrument strings, and some equipment related to semiconductors and data storage. * Removed food products include soya bean seeds, pure-bred breeding horses and bovine semen.

emnify Wins Platinum Award for eSIM Management Platform Innovation at Juniper Awards 2025
Recognized for Zero-Touch, Scalable eSIM Provisioning via MDM BERLIN, July 23, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--emnify, a global leader in IoT connectivity, has received the Platinum Award for eSIM Management Platform Innovation at the 2025 Juniper Research Future Digital Awards. This marks the company's second major recognition this year for its breakthrough in eSIM technology, following its win as eSIM Provider of the Year at the MVNOs World Awards 2025 in May. Together, these awards highlight emnify's pioneering role in simplifying how businesses manage Consumer eSIMs at scale. Juniper Research, a leading technology analyst firm, honors innovators reshaping the digital landscape. emnify was recognized for its Consumer eSIM provisioning via MDM, a solution that enables remote, zero-touch provisioning of SGP.22 eSIM profiles for consumer-connected devices such as Apple iPads. By integrating with MDM (Mobile Device Management) platforms, emnify allows enterprises to automate deployments, enforce policies and manage connectivity centrally, removing the need for QR codes or physical SIM handling. "This award is a powerful testament to our strong commitment to innovation and excellence," says Frank Stoecker, CEO of emnify. "It reflects the strength of our world-class engineering and development teams whose pursuit of cutting-edge solutions continues to redefine connectivity, enabling faster device rollouts, centralized eSIM management and greater operational control for businesses deploying connected devices at scale." Tens of thousands of connected devices across industries now rely on emnify's market-first eSIM provisioning via MDM, a solution that replaces manual SIM handling with zero-touch policy-driven activation. By integrating directly with MDM systems, it enables automatic profile provisioning while enforcing security policies like DNS filtering and roaming limits. One example is Discover Airlines, which uses emnify to connect over 1,800 Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) devices in more than 50 countries. With remote eSIM provisioning, devices arrive connectivity-ready—no QR codes, no manual setup and no crew action required. "eSIM provisioning has fundamentally changed how we operate," said Jonas Becker, EFB Administrator at Discover Airlines. "What once took days of coordination now happens automatically. Devices arrive ready to use." By supporting SGP.02 (M2M), SGP.22 (consumer) and soon SGP.32 (IoT) profiles in a single platform, emnify enables future-proof deployments and sets a new standard for scalable, secure enterprise-ready connectivity.
