Wait, this is something that American and Chinese companies do on a regular basis, but when European companies do it it would mean the end of the industry? I'm certainly not in favour of this, but I don't follow your logic.
- hughrr 5y agoThe point is really that European technology industry needs some differentiating characteristic to succeed. It is quite far behind both the American and Chinese side of things. The EU has promoted privacy and human rights first which was a very good differentiator but has instantly shot that entire concept down. So the question on the table now is if there is no differentiating factor, do we go with the established US company or the new EU company when a product has to be selected? It's not going to be the EU company.
