The European Commission said on Tuesday that along with national authorities it was calling upon Apple to stop geo-blocking practices on Apple Media Services.

The European Commission – the executive arm of the European Union – has warned Apple to desist from geo-blocking activities that it calls “discriminatory”.

After removing app that helps children improve their posture in China, Apple faces a new lawsuit that might force it to open the App Store.

The European Commission has informed Apple that its geo-blocking practices, where services are limited or blocked in certain geographical locations, are potentially breaking the law. These practices have been identified on the App Store, Apple Arcade, Music, iTunes Store, Books, and Podcasts.

Apple Inc. was notified by the European Union that its geo-blocking practices are potentially in breach of consumer protection rules, adding to the iPhone maker’s regulatory issues in the bloc.
