Just block it in Europe already. Or give Musk daily-increasing fines so he has it turned off in the EU.

Just block it in Europe already.

The Brazil Government did this for a week and immediately extracted big concessions from Elon. Really curious to see the EU so reluctant to employ a tried-and-true tactic... assuming you believe these governments are adversarial to American plutocrats.

The Uk is never gonna block anything from the US let's be honest, the EU might and maybe the rest of Europe, but the UK will not follow.

As a UKian, this is unfortunately true. No matter how many of us want to just cut off the US completely, the government will always capitulate.

They are literally blocking post on x under their new protect the children rules. Which is a rule that will be abuse
