The EU is categorically less protectionist than the US, and is one of the most open economies in the world.

If you honestly believe otherwise, you are intentionally misinformed.

Sample size of one.

We hosted a German foreign exchange student.

He was very aware of famous Youtubers, utilize Google for searches, watched Tiktok constantly. He owned the latest iPhone. His English was amazing.

In certain respects, I wasn't sure if we ever offered him a radically different experience than when he experienced living in Hannover.

Big (U.S.) Tech was very embedded in his life.
