American culture can access Europeans at any time. Europeans consume American culture daily.Just to clarify. Website banned are often hostile propaganda or extremists.
This is only cringy lousy provocation for appearance of moral superiority.
Coming from a government notorious for spying on it's citizens it seems pretty ludicrous.
- dmix 8mo agoEurope should just create their own social media companies where the government can act as a moderator of content then.
- hsuduebc2 8mo ago"Europe" is a continent made up of independent nation states. Each of those nations has chosen to have its own rules about what is and is not legal, which is the right of every country. Those nation states want companies operating within their territory to follow their rules. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that, it is up to each individual country. At the same time, I do not understand how what you wrote is in any way relevant to the topic.
- dmix 8mo agoEU gives out tons of grants for tech and the W project was already being spun as a European social network (despite not yet being funded) https://old.reddit.com/r/europe/comments/1qiauhd/bye_x_europeans_are_launching_their_own_social/ https://old.reddit.com/r/europe/comments/1qiauhd/bye_x_europ...
- hsuduebc2 8mo agoSorry, I clearly misunderstood the intent of your comment. I thought you were saying they should just build their own platform if they want to moderate it. My mistake. In any case, you’re right. The only concern is that projects like this that start in Europe often end up being acquired by American companies, so I’m worried it could end up the same way.
