Apple’s Core Graphics (Quartz) 2D imaging subsystem provides a high-performance, consistent API for creating, saving, and manipulating graphics. It’s also responsible for drawing most text on Apple platforms (Core Text).

In a similar move to its March 2024 raising of security concerns about the Digital Markets Act, Apple has published a white paper about the EU’s interoperability laws. Interoperability is the requirement that Apple share its technology with rivals, so that they can provide users with features such as recording audio through an iPhone‘s microphone.
It follows the EU’s publication of a document asking Apple to change its proprietary technology to be accessible by competitors. Apple’s white paper, called “It’s getting personal“, argues that “abuse of the DMA’s interoperability mandate could expose your private information.”

Meta, Facebook’s parent company, has reportedly filed 15 interoperability requests through the European Union’s Digital Market Act (DMA). These requests are meant to provide competitors access to technologies to give them an equal footing, but it seems Meta is going a step further.
According to a report from Reuters, Apple has shared a statement suggesting Meta is abusing the DMA’s interoperability request system. Meta has filed more requests than any other company, seeking deep access to Apple’s proprietary systems.
