Amazing. On like every thread of EU fining some US company for things such as privacy violations there's a stream of mor... er... users claiming that EU is only using that as a revenue stream to extract money from US companies because they have no homegrown businesses or similar bullshit (despite European companies being fines the same way).
Hell, you can find some of the same moronic arguments on this very thread still.
Trump also made the claim, back when he was justifying tariffs against the EU.
I hope EU cranks up the pressure against US because of that, using the EU Anti- Coercion Instrument as designed.
