Swiss Competition Commission is now investigating Apple for iPhone NFC access

13 December 2025 @ 12:21 am

But if you want to use the iPhone's NFC chip, you need to enter into a commercial agreement with Apple and pay the fees it requests, and that is precisely what the SCC is investigating. Namely, the SCC is trying to ascertain whether Apple's terms...
