No, it's the other way around. Either FB offers something that aligns with the law, or they GTFO. Why it's the me(g|t)acorp that sets rules and not elected governments? Because it's their product? Because we the people are the product and not people?
- karmasimida 3y agoGood, so EU can go and ban Facebook operating in EU straight up, not dancing around privacy. The EU protectionism around internet service is due to its lack of competitiveness in the whole internet economy. Or they might just outright start this trade war with US, and see how it goes.
