Another W for the EU. I just hope they stop making so many sus decisions and don't accept the chat control laws and stuff like that

“Bowing to regulatory pressure” is always a weird phrase to me. “Meta decides to follow the law” isn’t catchy enough I guess
That's how I communicate my intention to pay a parking ticket. “Bowing to regulatory pressure”
Well honestly, that's too soft. They did not decide. They were pushed by regulators to follow the law. So bowing to pressure is more appropriate in my view.
Only pauses, huh?
It's pretty sad the government has to tell a company to not be shitty.
That's normal and expected. What's sad is that there are countries with governments who don't tell companies not to be shitty.

Prepare yourself for pro-gun, anti-woman's rights, weirdo religion, tiny-penis truck, simplified-English AI

And even sadder is that users choose to still use those companies.
At the end of the day, we all have a choice. This happens to those that allow it. We try to stay safe from burglars, traffic accidents, illness, etc., but choose to still use these companies. That's a choice, and there are ways to improve our lives, like removing them from our lives.
Don't forget millions upon millions of low-information, low-empathy voters and non-voters who let it happen, many who still lazily believe that corporations are our friends, that "what's good for walmart and Exxon is good for 'Murica", that they are still the client and not the product, and the far-reaching implications of this.
This is completely off topic, but does anyone miss the Play Store UI in the article image? Man what a throwback.
