I'm baffled in how the EU is so much for consumer rights and punishing Apple, Google and Microsoft but then they completely ignore the issue of choosing your own router in your own home network.

In germany therr is legislation forcing them to allow you to use your own router. This is just a sneaky attempt to circumvent this law via the EU.

This will probably end up backfiring as germany is the EU. They will just slap the same law on all EU countries.

Thank god, that this is not true, because EU safed us Germans so many time from our conservative governments.
