Biden urged to stop EU ‘unfairly’ targeting American tech::5 out of 6 ‘gatekeepers’ are US-based so regulators across pond are just being mean to us, say lawmakers
Maybe that’s because American corporations suck, wouldn’t it be great if Biden actually enforced anti-trust laws instead of bowing down to them.
Then again, when has any American president stood up to big corporations?
Yeah, 20 years ago. That’s the problem.
That was the DoJ acting not the president.
Executive branch and judicial branch are not the same thing.
The DoJ isn’t in the judicial branch. The courts are the judicial branch. DoJ is in the executive branch because it is supposed to carry out and enforce the laws.
Shockingly, the American president does not have jurisdiction over the eu. I mean, they know this, they it’s more political hot air for nothing, and we give them the attention they want for it.
They don’t have jurisdiction. But they have other things that make them very important to the EU which can be leveraged.
As an American…I support the EU. Because America will always support the capitalists fucking you over, and the EU at least tries to do differently…
Yah nice to have someone on the side of consumers for once. Shame we have to look across the ocean to find them
US has the most protectionist policies west of Beijing.
And east of Beijing.
Also north of Beijing
Not south, though… Oh God, not south.
Alternative title: American Corporations rail that they can’t rampage, unchecked, across the entire globe like they can in America. They whine about this publicly to
their paid lackeysthe government.Fuck this ambiguous headline.
“Unfairly”

Yeah, this has nothing to do with Biden. That said, it sounds like the rules are not being applied fairly. That said, it’s not like America has fair, consistent policies or anything…
This is just sideways related, but considering how difficult is making anything because of the word “ITAR” it is absolutely normal EU is trying to go away as fast as possible from EEUU tech and companies and is regulating their behaviour here.
EU: I’m gonna target even harder
