    Yeah, with Trump and the weak Biden administrations they got what they wanted, complete immunity.

    The only thing causing issues for them now is the EU, but they have pointed their massive lobby machine toward them.

    I seem to recall the EU being fucking stupid and signing a deal that they will accept US safety standards on US made cars.

    Wasn’t there also a law that said that American cloud providers that wanted EU business had to build EU only datacenters for the EU customer’s data that would not be shared with the US, the providers promptly broke that law and the EU ignored it

      To clarify, I think you are talking about “US companies and their lobbyists” when you say “they” here. And I agree with you.
