I thought it was bad that the European Union was threatening to impose a fine of 6% of revenue if a social media company didn’t comply with the Digital Services Act.
You know, the law that was used to threaten Twitter with fines if Elon Musk interviewed Donald Trump on Twitter/X.
Not happy with Elon’s snubbing of the EU’s threats, the transnational tyranny upped the ante by threatening to levy the fine not just against Twitter/X but every company Elon Musk has partial ownership in. SpaceX, Tesla, the Boring Company, Neuralink…you know, every innovative company in his stable of companies. They may be separate legal entities, but legality is now out the window if you anger the totalitarians.
This is how the world ends, not with a bang but a whimpering, overpaid, underworked bureaucrat who can’t handle the truth.
