Leaving the EU could be an option.
Meta seemed to think that was a threat that would get the EU to cave to their demands and the regulators’ response was basically
Chad EU vs virgin meta
To be fair, tech companies can do whatever they want in the EU, No party would ever want to be responsible for WhatsApp, Windows, or ChatGPT not being available anymore.
The companies that own those won't give up the revenue from the EU lmao
Are you blind, deaf and dumb, or just living under a rock? The EU has been slapping fine after fine on scummy American companies.
Following the laws another.
Apparently not.
Until the EU don't use the same tactic: follow the law or get out.
And what Meta is not understanding is that if the EU will arrive at this point, the "follow the law" will be as pedantic as it can be. And maybe even a little more.
Meta should learn from what happened during the Brexit's negotiations.
I hope you're right, but the EU hasn't had many overwhelming successes when it comes to pushing that particular boulder up the hill.
Well, the micro-USB and USB-C or the GDPR examples are here. Maybe is a little more difficult with services since it is way faster to change a service then a law.
lol tell us another one
Don't let the door hit you on the way out!
Wouldn't that be a treat!
Dreams are free and can't be tracked.
