It’s funny to see a “share this page on Facebook” option at the bottom of the press release.

At least they seem to have their own system in place for displaying those share buttons, as there are no requests to 3rd party domains on page load, everything loads from *europa.eu. Could have been worse :)

It shouldn't be funny, social media isn't doing the world any favor, they gotta behave

A government that is not above its own laws. Surprisingly difficult for some people here to appreciate.
