And Apple gods are the best people to moderate morality.

It just shows what kind appetite has been waited by European user, nothing else but porn.

As if people don't know how to just google boobs. BUT WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN. Maybe police your own children?

The EU is incompetent {period}. Apple even more so for not fight the EU to protect Apple consumers.
Third party app store is nothing compared to the USB C debacle. Numerous reports of devices blowing up because people think their USB C laptop charger (20V) will charge all USB C devices (most 5V).
Already happened in one Centurion Lounge that I know of, airlines will soon ban some portable power pack, because they don't know if it's incorrectly charged before boarding.
Apple, grow a set and fight back the EU morons.

As long as AltStore PAL properly vets who has access to pr0n, it's not Apple's responsibility to say who has access to it in the EU
R-rated movies can be a danger to children (that's why it needs adult permission) - but that's not Apple's responsibility neither
All PROPER USB-C laptop chargers (20V) WILL charge all USB-C devices (most 5V)
People are just too stupid in buying any cheapest chargers out of China, instead of making sure if it's from a reliable source
The more powerful the device, the more ya should make sure it's reliable! It's one thing to buy any 12W USB-C charger for your phone; it's another thing to buy a 65W USB-C charger - make sure it's from a reliable source!

Not All, only ones after PD spec ratified. Even after PD ratification, Chinese are still selling old stock, NOW. Some people choose to burn their plane down with a $20 charger than $120 for OEM compliant charger.

Well, yes, all proper USB-C charger has to be power-delivery certified
I don't understand people who would spend a lot of money on a device, then take a chance on destroying it by cheapening out on dodgy chargers
It's no different than with computers - it's up to the user to be careful what they install on their computers. Just use the same caution ya use on computers to use on your smartphones

Yes sure, caution is always good, but the reason Apple developed Lightning was to save people's lives, people who try to save $10 buying a dodgy Chinese charger. The same people who now try to save $30 with more dodgy Chinese charger, AND who thinks one dodgy USB C charger is all they need to pack when travelling.
The EU doesn't even its own CE mark let alone care for people.

There are dodgy Lightning chargers as well. Not every manufacturer follows Apple MFi programme
The reliability of the source is more important than what the technology is. Any tech can be dodgy depending on the source. Always consider the source
