Keep hitting US Big Tech with fines, Europe's Greens tell von der Leyen

It's clear that a faction hostile to the EU has taken hold of key institutional and corporate positions in the US. Fines are not enough, it's time to start fostering an independent tech ecosystem in the EU and start raising a "Great Firewall" equivalent.

> and start raising a "Great Firewall" equivalent.

May I suggest relocating to China or North Korea? I'd suggest Russia, but I doubt Putin is authoritarian enough for you.

Let's turn our free internet into an authoritarian splinternet! It'll make everything better! /s

saubeidl•2mo ago
The authoritarians are the ones owning the platforms - X is owned by somebody who's openly calling for the abolishment of our democratic structures, is supporting far-right extremists in our countries and has done a Sieg Heil on the world stage.

Getting their toxic propaganda out of our continent is the minimum we need to preserve our democracies. The paradox of tolerance applies.

uyzstvqs•2mo ago
Even if that'd be true, two wrongs don't make a right. If a government centrally determines whether something is propaganda and censors it, then it's authoritarian. A free society is built on free information and free debate. If you don't have that, then you don't have a democracy to protect. There's no wiggle room or grey area there.

Your government would be no better than Putin starting a "special military operation", and censoring all "foreign propaganda" calling it an invasion. Russia also holds elections, and yet Putin keeps winning.

saubeidl•2mo ago
Again, I would recommend you familiarize yourself with the Paradox of Tolerance, written up by an Austrian philosopher after the horrors of WW2. Honestly, the entire book - The Open Society and its Enemies - might be a good read.

We've been here before. We learned our lesson. We can't wait for Americans to catch up.

casey2•1mo ago
Not going to happen. The EU makes more from fines on US tech companies than taxes on EU tech companies.

It's unclear at this point if EU leaders have any authority to even collect any money or if they are just an anachronism.

There are people that want to work and people that don't, somehow the EU is run by people that don't. The EU is in for a rude awakening when US companies stop paying these illegal fines and EU companies stop paying illegal taxes.

DivingForGold•2mo ago
The EU wants to "tax" and fine our tech innovators ? Let the EU fight Russia all by themselves, alternatively, they can pay 3x for the weapons we have been supplying.
saubeidl•2mo ago
Our market has rules. Either abide by them or get out. We are fighting Russia all by ourselves already.
