Summary
The EU warns that Trump-aligned tech leaders, including Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, pose an “existential threat” by pressuring Brussels to weaken its digital regulations.
Trump has threatened tariffs on countries enforcing strict rules on U.S. tech firms, with Musk openly mocking EU governance.
Brussels insists on its right to regulate disinformation and antitrust issues but faces growing U.S. retaliation.
The dispute could escalate into a trade war, with both sides preparing countermeasures.
Yeah stop the regulation, just block them all
Make strong regulation and enforce it. Put huge fines for non-compliance. If the companies are not making profit, then exit the market. If there is still a demand for it, replace it with decentralized alternatives.
