That must suck. I’m sorry your government failed you so hard… It’s ridiculous.
I remember a couple of years ago talking about how apple was causing huge amounts of electronic waste and hassle to millions of people by not adopting USB-C on the iphone. Standards are important for many reasons, so I thought about how nice it would be if a government forced them to stop being shitty in that one way, but I knew the US government would never “harm” big business like that. So when I saw the headline in particular about the EU forcing it, I felt like they had answered my prayer even from across the Atlantic ❤️
As a Brit who misses the EU a lot they always did a lot right but are underappreciated by the people living in it.
