This is a proposal right? Not something that's actually in place.

This happens every few years, and they also happen close to elections.

I'm not saying that this isn't dangerous, but these people send these proposals because they use it for their election campaign. They look like they want change, and they then blame too many votes on "not themselves" that it didn't pass.

I'm no so scared that this goes through, anyway.

Really shows that EU hit them where it hurts, when they refuse to do the same other places.

Only good for consumers when forced by law.

EU are the heroes we need, but don't deserve.

Wild that EU needs to do this. Where's the US in all this? The company is even based there.

Yeah, maybe. I'm just not amazed anymore how they'll always figure out a way to screw customers over with new kind of ads.

I just think this will be the same.

It will not hurt their revenue. There's no way any of these companies haven't thought about how to increase revenue with what they're doing.

Just because we haven't seen how yet, doesn't mean it isn't planned.

And it will not cost an "ungodly amount of money" to process these requests. Ofc Google will cache answers, because alot of what people ask, are the same. Then maybe the info can be updated sometimes, but ofc they won't do it every time.

Then the cheap EV's doesn't matter if they are not legal.

And the Volvo was not based on Geely. It was the other way around. They bought Volvo for this purpose exactly.

But I hope they will make better EV's for the world. EV's are generally just better cars, and it's a clear road to less noise and toxic pollution.

Yeah. Must be something wrong with the place and not you. It's called projection.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

Yeah, also true.

EU holds alot more power on its politics than it gets credit for. Good for us they are consumer minded.

Did it though, or did they only react on reports from already infected users.
