@HistoPol There’s no history of US big tech being sued for breaking data hygiene laws yet
We don’t mandate processing all customer data inside our borders. US could do that though and make data hygiene compliance the cost of doing business
There’s been talks of mandating this in #EU. Not happened yet
What did happen was the #US state investing in strong #lobbying campaigns against it in Brussels
US state certainly throws it’s weight behind it’s companies

Fuck Eurovision. Fuck Israel. Fuck Zionism. Fuck settler colonialism. Fuck apartheid. Fuck ethnic cleansing. Fuck genocide.

"Fun" fact about #Hungary:
While most Western countries are concerned with extrajudicial security personnel from #China going after Chinese dissidents and other interference via secret police stations, Hungary just went and signed a deal with China: "lol, police from a totalitarian country officially patrolling our streets? sure thing"
And these "police" are tearing down #Tibet flags
And #EU flags

I wish for EU to stop supporting the #genocide committed by #Israel in #Gaza.
I wish that Ursula V.d.L will be prosecuted for usurping power which did not belong to her, standing next to butcher Netanyahu, and supporting his #WarCrimes in our name.
I wish for #BDS action by #EU against the only #apartheid state in existence.
I wish for the 95.5 billion euro of Project Horizon to not fund Israeli Universities while #Educide is done in #Palestine.

The presidential inauguration is standard in #Russia, despite this being Putin's third consecutive term in office. 20 EU countries did not send officials, showing splits in the bloc over relations with #Moscow.

European intelligence agencies have warned their governments that #Russia is plotting violent acts of sabotage across the continent as it commits to a course of permanent conflict with the west.
Russia has already begun to more actively prepare covert bombings, arson attacks and damage to infrastructure on European soil, directly and via proxies, with little apparent concern about causing civilian fatalities, intelligence officials believe.
