Those of us in Europe who disagree with what the EU are doing? We quietly move to other more dynamic economies.

We are not the kind of people who stand on ideological soapboxes and discuss the state of regulation.

Those who remain in EU nations and put the EU on a pedestal? They merely manifest the survivorship bias of this political regime.

>Those who remain in EU nations and put the EU on a pedestal?

so... the majority of EU? I haven't heard of emmigration rates rising in EU. They have in the US, though.

Fine? Are we supposed to be mad that those who want to siphon up personal data are going to US and doing it to US citizens instead?

Anytime the EU comes up, I'm reminded that this is still a forum on a very ambitious US startup accelerator who sees public safeguards as obstructions to their own million dollar idea.

If your idea can't success without being a parasite to your customers, maybe the business doesn't deserve to exist.

Go to where the hosts are.

You're soapboxing right now.

My point was about public perception of regulation. And that people do view EU regulation as impacting their tech products in ways similar to product announcements. Not the merits or lack thereof of the EU.
