      I love how the answer to everything from an EU resident that disagrees with anything is to cry to the govt to fine people.

      We tried the free market self regulating, turns out it doesn’t work.

      As someone who’s not an EU resident I love what the EU does because it tends to make the market better globally. See: iPhone switching to USB-C

          Ya, I like that they’re tech dictators. I think everyone should be more dictatorial with big industry. Do I agree with all the policies and regulations they come up with? Absolutely not. But at this point I’d prefer bad regulation than what we currently have from the completely toothless US regulators.
