I'm surprised that most of the comments here are siding with Europe blindly?

Am I the only one who assumes by default that European regulation will be heavy-handed and ill conceived?

Everything in this thread even remotely anti-EU-regulation is being extreme downvoted

Yeah it's kinda weird.

Feels like I need to go find a tech site full of people who actually like tech instead of hating it.

As others have pointed out, we like tech.

We don't like what trillion-dollar supranational corporations and infinite VC money are doing with tech.

Hating things like "We're saving your precise movements and location for 10+ years" and "we're using AI to predict how much you can be charged for stuff" is not hating technology
