VAT isn't a trade barrier.

DMA is. GDPR is. Both are applied principally against competitors using arbitrary fines invented by the EU. No compliance guidance is given, because the laws are inherently vague.

  • It's not. It is not anything specific against for example the US. We have many consumer protection laws. Has nothing to do with the US.

    • Link me to a single example of an EU company getting fined under DMA. After all, you said it was applied equally so it should be easy :)

  • In that case, VW being fined 17bn for dieselgate should also count as a trade barrier?

  • That's not just some bs - the other side of the coin is crooked billionaires and other reptilians taking advantage of anything in their way blinded by their massive greed and psycopathic traits.

    Excuse me, this is not how a society should roll. Not a sustainable one at least.
