Well, the EU won't allow it.

IIRC Apple have been allowed to remove Fornite from the Apple Store, they just fall foul of the EU Digital Markets Act / DMA (?) when also blocking the Epic Games Store as a route to add/sideload it.

Removing ChatGPT due to ToS violations seems like it would be ok.

Maybe.

Depends if they hate Apple or OpenAI more.

Apple has a decade of beef with EU.

OpenAI has a lot ot catchup on the EU hate scale.

Eu person: neither. We'd rather have the Chinese.

Yeah, I feel like given two bad choices the EU’s tendency would be to go with a third, worse option.

the US is looking to break up the EU and is sending its rich people to make riots and violence.

choosing chinese seems like a shoo in for better operators
