Yes, the same point applies: Why would a customer who uses the word processor want that? To play it another way, imagine we did have a word processor that did this and, A) Word processor A prioritised features customers wanted and the print

It doesn't seem to solve a customer want. Why would someone who made a word doc want that? Atm you can write it in the word doc and you would have full control of the list that way too. Additionally, there are far better tools availabl

Im grateful where I live now does not have GDPR, and i'm saying that as a consumer. They want to get something like GDPR but more protective to customers. Would not call GDPR a success - no country wants to really copy GDPR in its curr

Well no, but I would argue that we don't have to since we have (collectively as the west) our own software and hardware. When we look at the aspect sold into western markets, it is not being designed and made in China it is being contr

Of those 1 is software as you mention, 1 is not an EU company, and 1 was founded 40 years ago, before tech regulation was a thing. If you did a like for like equivalent for American technology it can't even compare. You could find smal

Will be curious to know if there are any EU companies making AI to regulate, or that they'll all be imports.

I im honest I don't see the big deal with this practice. a) You can unlock the device b) You can connect via WiFi, why is the device 'phoning home' such a big deal when its brand new and has no data on it?

It sounds exciting, but it doesn't sound great for business. No surprise there is no new company in the DAX, CAC40.. etc in edging towards half a century now. There is a trade off in terms of the economic condition and that can be seen

The reason that wont happen is simply immigration. The US cant produce more babies, but it can import more people in a younger demographic. The death by demographic would have happened a long time a go in the US if it was not for immigratio

Do you have an example of this, as quite nearly it is the experience of every Shopify seller or SaaS vendor. You can get Chinese customers, but they'll be local customers to your market (e.g selling in America, Australia, Europe, etc)

My argument is that the US dollars that are on these reserves only exist because consumers have spent them. The argument that this does not have anything to do with consumer demand is almost not understanding where these dollars come from.
