Weighing the cost to the relationship to a fascist state must be the dumbest math possible.
indeed. At this point, the only thing related to 'murica that I care about in terms of relations is to keep them from nuking other countries. And with their empathyless billionaire cunts in charge of the rapist buffoon, that is basically impossible to ensure. Might as well do our own thing entirely.

The EU can't extricate itself from Russian gas despite years of Russian aggression in Ukraine. How do you think they are going to do with U fucking S tech?
How is US tech going to do without European money? It's a two-way street. Things like GDPR, USB-C charging everywhere and other regulations have shown that the EU has plenty of influence.

Around half also believe Big Tech companies are more powerful than the EU
Large majority of French, German and Spanish public back tough EU stance on Big Tech, despite risk to Trump relations - People vs. Big Tech
Around half also believe Big Tech companies are more powerful than the EU Brussels, Belgium (3rd July 2025) - According to a new survey conducted by
People vs. Big Tech (peoplevsbig.tech)
there is an overlooked demographic here.
I want to know who supports EU stance on big tech especially because of the Trump relations.

There is no point in making an effort to preserve relations with the US since their clown in chief will just tear down decades of relationships anyways after reading something on Twitter.
EU should forge ahead and just wait for America to hopefully come to senses and end it's entitled temper tantrum.

USB charging is the worst example ever. Ever ever.
It took the EU something like 15 years and several laughable attempts until they somehow made it.

One thing they could do right now... right now.... is to set up legislation to mandate all government systems to run on Open Source operating systems and software that is owned and controlled by European small to mid size companies. Out right ban the use of US tech in government.
The migration might take time. But I'm saying simply legislate for this. Do you think they ever will? I doubt it.

I was literally going to say, what do you mean despite degrading Trump relations? Isn't that a goal in itself?

USB-C is only like 10 years old, and widespread availability has been within maybe the last 5 years. I think it's fine they waited, enforcing a brand new and unproven technology would have been a bad idea.

That's why I generalized my answer to USB and not only USB-C.

"Despite"?
I think they meant 'because'
