I do not think it's remotely fair to Google to be angry at them for following EU laws.

I'm not making an argument though? I'm saying I'd like to have my location history without it being tied to Google.

When demand is higher than supply there will always be strong pricing power from the supply side, you can't fix that with price controls, you'll end up with shortages.

That's not going to matter when we are talking about billions of dollars of service and app revenue from customers and the chance to lock developers into the Apple ecosystem as hard as they've locked consumers in.

Not if the methane is produced through carbon from plants, in which case methane will stay constant but CO2 being sucked from the atmosphere would occur at the same rate as methane emission. It's sourcing food from petroleum that cause
