Like investigations into Apple, X and others...
Large US tech companies like to pretend like they are being harassed by regulation, but in the end they behave as if they were regular business expenses. Do shady things now, get fined X years later.
Sounds like an invite for no 1 to operate. The rules just keep growing faster than the AI bubble.
No they aren't.
What you have, and of interest to digital companies are.
GDPR (2016), for all operating in the EU. You get the gist of it in an afternoon.
The AI guideline (2024), also readable in an afternoon, and it mostly has provision that make life harder for those in law enforcement, and healthcare tech.
DMA (2022), only affects the select few at the top Google, Apple, Facebook, etc.
Show me where these bubbling "inscrutable" regulations, that push business away, are.
Edit: Found it. The data stem from a really radical paper that wants the US government to sanction Europe immediately and harshly [0]. Some guy called David Fant made the graph, presumably using data from said paper. The whole thing was then published on reddit [1] , Instagram and Twitter with a incidentiery headline. So yeah, in terms of credibility this thing falls flat.

The EU is a big place with a lot going on. You will persuade more people and learn more if you engage in a more open style.
