EU regulates tech companies because they are foreign. Go see the EU regulation on ICE cars to see the stark difference.
Europeans like you need to realize that you have been fed a whole lot of moral superiority propaganda by pro-EU entities; none of which has any merit. Go look at how much they regulate Bayer to give but one example.
- fhd2 2y agoI actually was thinking about saying "maybe you can only do the one, not the other". I think it's naive to assume that any one country or association will regulate without regarding the effects on their economy and political position. Sad, but logical. Doesn't make this piece of regulation bad. FWIW, I did applaud the US for going hard after VWs Diesel shenanigans.
- oytis 2y agoThe fact that the whole Volkswagen affair was uncovered in the US is really telling. Had they created a stricter US version we would never know.
