Given that we are going full authoritarian fascist now, perhaps the EU should ban Google, given the US tik tok precedent.

What a twist. In the 90s, the internet forced countries to wake up to the new modern era. It was a combination of American companies wanting both to expand and provide goodwill.

And now, this new era is going to tell American companies to fuck off.

Democracies around the world rightly shouldn't tolerate the blatant corruption and manipulative business practice of American tech companies.
