- TeMPOraL 7y agoNo, but it will slow the innovation in that space, which I consider to be a positive development. It's on-topic, because slowing innovation is why people are complaining about Google's position being strengthened. (Also, my perhaps naive hope is that the better the Google's market share here, the more damage will be caused by EU regulating the space.)
