Can EU companies do business in the US without adhering to its laws?

Fucking hypocrites.

Stop breaking EU law or fuck off then.

I can't wait for tech giants to face more consequences, as I think the EU is one of the last places capable of punching them in the face because these chuckleheads are too protected in the USA.

We should have broke up all these big tech companies a long time ago. Hit them guys with the Anti-Trust act and BREAK THEM UP!
