This is what happens when you rely on American tech companies. Apple is pulling shit with Europe, the home of “civilisation”, that feels like it’s straight out of a stupid reality show over regulations regarding sideloading and privacy. And clowns like this will regurgigate the dumbest and the most worn-out libertarian shit in first tier media outlets.
Tbh I don’t get the point behind GDPR. Is it genuinely meant to ensure privacy to some extent or is it just some form of protectionism against American tech companies?
Alright, i stand corrected.
But just as a thought experiment: say the US decides tomorrow to cut Europe off from American GPS satellites. Could Europe still function only relying on their own satellite network? I’m not just talking about individual navigation apps, i’m talking about European airlines, European militaries (in this scenario let’s say NATO doesn’t exist and Europeans actually have armies and aren’t just isn’t glorified hosts for American bases), etc.
