    that EU users will be confronted with a list of default browsers before they have the opportunity to understand the options available to them

    What is this even supposed to mean? All other browsers are pre-installed alongside safari? It’s hard for users to choose a browser because they’re able to use others as well?

      On Windows, the EU Browser Selection system basically meant, during setup, you would be asked which browser you wanted. Internet Explorer would be hidden, and whatever you selected would be installed and set to default. I guess for non-techy users, they might not know what the difference between Safari, Chrome, Firefox, and whatever else was in the list. But its not like they couldn’t go to the store and grab another one if they weren’t happy.
