The article focuses on Apple's adjustments to its iOS software in Japan to comply with the Mobile Software Competition Act (MSCA), which aims to enhance competition in the digital marketplace. The updates, part of iOS 26.2, allow developers more flexibility in payment processing, app distribution through alternative marketplaces, and user choice of browsers and search engines. While Apple has collaborated with Japanese regulators on these changes, it has expressed concerns about potential risks to user safety, including exposure to malware and fraud. The company has implemented a "notarization" system to mitigate these risks but acknowledges that it is less thorough than its standard App Store review process. [Extracted from the article]
