EU porn tech does beat US porn tech in many metrics. I have always wondered why, when the rest of their tech sector is way behind.

I imagine that the industry is under comparatively little scrutiny by regulators and the public, and can therefore be as fast-moving and rule-bending[0] as the top SV startups. This combined with less (at least perceived) prudence in Europe might give them the edge over their competition.

Makes sense.

Even in areas where they do match up tech-wise Auto, Nokia, Airbus/Ariane etc maybe they need a Elon Musk type to do some ass kicking.
