My theory was wrong: I thought Apple would make it possible for EU users to access Apple Intelligence and iPhone Mirroring by simply changing their region to the US, which would as a result disable sideloading for those EU iPhones which changed regions to the US.
I thought it would go viral on TikTok & Twitter: “HOW TO ACCESS APPLE INTELLIGENCE IN EU” and they would make millions of people change their regions to the US, and the EU could do nothing about it. They couldn’t undermine the free will of their citizens changing their device regions to somewhere else.
The latest iOS 18 Beta 2 actually contradicts my theory: the iPhone Mirroring feature is heavily geolocked and inaccessible within the EU.
