I live in the EU (well, some of the time), and I honestly believe that what the above commenter says is at least partially true. The EU are being protectionist, and usually only pass these types of regulations in sectors they have little to offer in the way of competition. I eagerly await the moment they target Airbus or car manufacturers.
- closewith 4y agoThe EU is categorically less protectionist than the US, and is one of the most open economies in the world. If you honestly believe otherwise, you are intentionally misinformed.

He owned the latest iPhone. His English was amazing. In certain respects, I wasn't sure if we ever offered him a radically different experience than when he experienced living in Hannover. Big (U.S.) Tech was very embedded in his life.
