The previous version was never illegal, and Apple isn’t being punished. The EU created a new set of rules and Apple is complying.

The use of language here, such as the word "illegal", is a psychological trick. It's an intentional conflation with past behavior/the status quo with being "immoral" (as illegal implies immoral).

Agreed. Ironically I’d say the use of manipulative language like that is much more of a moral problem that society is contending with.
