EU regulation has led to Apple being forced to open up iOS in ways that many never expected, but it’s not done just yet. In an effort to ensure “effective interoperability” with other platforms, the EU wants Apple to make native features of iOS being compatible with Android, including the likes of AirDrop and more.
I thought competition was about HAVING features that differentiate you from the others; Not forcing everyone to give their good ideas to everyone else?
If the fuel for your car were specifically tied to the manufacturer, would that increase or decrease competition?

That’s avoiding the question. It also ignores the fact that there are already multiple competing implementations that are also better than standard Bluetooth file sharing, but that Apple’s walled Garden prevents several of them from being usable on Apple’s devices, so if you’re taking that approach then you’re trading off one method of Apple being anticompetitive for another.
When something is subject to the network effect, competition requires interoperability. This applies almost universally to technical standards.
It sounds like you are providing a reasoned explanation of ideas, rather than just downvoting me. That can’t be right, can it?
Competition is when Monopoly
File sharing using bluetooth and wifi are not Apple’s ideas.
you are correct, they are not, however, Apple‘s optimization and the mechanisms underpinning how those actually function is significantly different and superior to the regular file sharing that you’re describing. I am not making this information up. You can verify this yourself. I can provide some citations if you wish. And yes, I was foolish to post my comment in an android community.
