If unheeded, that step would then pave the way for new fines under the blocโ€™s Digital Markets Act, which can be as high as 5 per cent of average daily worldwide revenue per day of noncompliance.

Now that's a proper fine. DO IT.

can be as high

It will therefore probably be ~0.05%, as always.

And of course Malus paints itself as the victim. Boohoo, you need to follow rules.
