Personally, I want nothing to do with them and I'm not willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. I moved to the Fediverse to get away from all these corpos.

The EU really are the protectors of the free and open internet. Given the Republicans would kill any attempts to pass any regulations here in the States, we're basically reliant on the EU to save us. So thanks, guys :)

They've been high on Reaganomics for decades and refuse to accept that legislating the private sector was critical to keep them from ruining everything.

I like the EU as much as the next guy, but you can't tell the whole story without mentioning this disaster.
