It’s stupid shit like this why regulation is not the answer to big tech. But then we wouldn’t need regulation if big tech didn’t ruin all that was good about the Internet to begin with.

People are the problem. At large scale they turn everything to shit. Both in the private sector and in the public sector. Both meddling, making decisions on your behalf. In all cases taking your power away. It was better when we were just small communities, suffering and learning from the consequences of our own actions.

How are they going to enforce it? Ban Firefox, Waterfox, *fox from the EU? Pigeon-hole themselves into using Chrome on their quest for “digital sovereignty”?
