alt Hacker NewsWhy doesn't the EU force these banks to support all platforms including web?
I mean, if they can force Microsoft to support other browsers than IE6, then why can't they force banks?

Not sure why this is getting downvoted (or why IE6 is being brought up in 2026). But yes, banks are super-highly regulated and for good reason. They’re subject to all sorts of accessibility laws, there’s loads of precedent here.
I expect everyone who can conceive of something other than Android or iOS* on a phone is on HN, and not a bureaucrat in Brussels.
