I’m as appalled at our government’s foreign policy as the next person, but I would bet my bottom dollar on there not being a blanket government mandated EU IP ban in the next four years regardless of the election results. There’s a long way between tariffs and targeted export restrictions for the EU, and the lobbying to NOT cut off all US internet businesses from the EU would be insane.
