  1. We definitely need to be taking bets on how long Twitter lasts

  2. Mighty headline, for a continent unable to produce such “big tech” itself.

  3. Why we don’t have our own Youtube, Google, Facebook, or even Wikipedia ? Europe should have own social media like China.

  4. Regulations like this are why Europe doesn’t produce many big tech companies. You may think that’s a good thing, but it’s also partly why the US’ economy is motoring ahead of Europe’s (and why I will continue to invest in US equities over European ones).

  5. Why are there so many comments about investing in the us all of a sudden? What’s wrong with tech giants being held to some basic human standards? Ah right, the bottom line for shareholders goes down. Guess it’s clear who’s paying these fuckers.

  6. Let’s continue this path.

    We have not seen any real income increases in half a century as of now. It is funny how everyone shits on US and how poor are poor while in last 40 years bottom 10-40% of income earners outgrew those in Germany who used to make more. And it is only matter of time before everyone does so even if we include social welfare in it because that is inevitable outcome if one grows and other dous not (or decreases even).

    But sure let’s celebrate that and continue to shit on US because homeless people lol which is leaving us further and further behind in all income decils while we stagnate or even decline.

  7. A lot of Americans on the comments, I for one approve ! Good job EU

  8. It’s kind of amusing to watch European self-destruction in technology.
