My Pixel's disk gave up after over a year's usage, so I thought I was screwed, but then found out that in UK (EU) warranty for electronic goods is 2 years, called google support and they sent me a brand new one, no questions asked.

well you also pay same price in EUR as in USD despite EUR being stronger, this longer warranty ain't for free...

>Are your customer protection laws super weak ?

Yes. The same companies also fight right to repair laws. It's frequently illegal to repair the broken thing yourself.

That's the trade-off of having less regulation. OTOH I hear that the US has the most regulation in the world, so I'm confused.

I assume you hear that from someone who's either very confused or just making it up. Consumer regulation in the US is generally rather weak as compared to the EU. Some other regulation less so, but the idea that the US has the most regulation isn't really credible.

Some aspects of the American right-wing like making these very extreme claims, presumably on the basis that some people won't bother to check. Another even more implausible one is that America is the most-taxed country; this simply isn't even vaguely true no matter what way you look at it.
