I don’t see/share the HN outrage. If the EU wants to stay in the game, it has to be realistic about how regulation affects scaling and investment ... tweaking or rolling back parts of digital rules to compete with US/China tech isn’t “evil” .. it’s just how global competition works tbh.
Becoming like your opponent must be for sure not the only way to compete with them... China and the US are not the same, why should the EU become like either?
Seriously, the EU needs to actually make it possible to build successful businesses in the EU. Starting any business there is such a nightmare, it's no wonder everyone takes their ideas to the US.
Nobody takes their ideas to the US. The US prints money backing them with oil and purchases every single startup in EU.
