Politics is bout ideology, value and belief. But here, it's about making decisions by dogmatism and cult. This is a whole different level.
Yeah, as the majority of the time, regulations work!
This article of the BBC gives more contexts.
Alternative title: Capitalism doesn't care about morals and contracts. It wants to make more money.
The lack of investment in strategic infrastructure, the lack of public expenses, and the mostly monolithic neoliberal economic politics bring them to this situation.
At one point, you need to invest public money in the infrastructure that work for the day-to-day life of everyone. In this case, we speak about the railway network. Europe can't be car centric like the US. The geography and the urbanism of European towns and cities don't allow this perspective.
This has implication on the job market as poorer can't afford a job. The neoliberal politics targeting the social welfare make people poorer and this had influences on the consumption and the economy. It's of course more complicated than this. But, it gives an idea of the situation.
EU should double down with a regulation stipulating that people are free to install whatever OS they want on devices (smartphones included) and companies can't gatekeep it.
Brave to end 'Strict' fingerprinting protection as it breaks owns ad revenue.
Improve public transportation with good lines and timetable. People will use them.
So they're admitting regulations work. They are making a lot less money due to random ads instead of targeting ads so they will have to charge to be sure they are still making too much.
I can't wait for the next regulations against tech corporations and social media.
Twitter under Elon looks similar to the UK under Brexit.
I had to laugh at "minimal kernel".

Who didn't this coming? Seriously, meta will take what they want to increase the capital and makes everything else invisible.
Fediverse isn't here to say yes to everything. We have the freedom to say no and this is the power of the fediverse. It's allowing and denying. And Meta is a threat to the fediverse.
