The idea of banning meta or Google is indeed not serious. What's realistic is forcing them to behave by issuing fines that make such behavior prohibitively expensive. Admittedly there's nobody doing that in Europe seriously yet, but that's because the current unhinged head of American state has meltdown every time American bigtech get a wrist slap.

- fsflover 8mo agoThere were no serious attempts at enforcing the rules.
- mikkupikku 8mo agoIf that's so, then is it realistic to expect that to somehow change? These corps have been fined more times than I can count, but it's clearly not working.
- fsflover 8mo agoThe fines were too low. If Europe is serious now, it can change.
