Gregory's Server@FOSSingularity @IzzyOnDroid They can't pull out of the entirety of the EU and the fines are absolutely gigantic this time around so I think they'll be forced to comply

@FOSSingularity @IzzyOnDroid The EU has over 100 million more people than the US, and Apple already complies with the GDPR. Lol @luna @IzzyOnDroid really, what is your population? Also there’s 0 way that is true, and again, what are the fines? Hmm? Actually, nm -_- this exchange has just convinced me European Apple fans exist entirely within their own rectums. Have a good one @FOSSingularity @IzzyOnDroid TIL I'm an Apple fan. Also, did they just deny population statistics, block me, and call me a rude dick for that? 😭Lmfao. USians never cease to amaze me  @luna@anarchy.center @IzzyOnDroid@floss.social do they think the EU is a tiny insignificant power or something? France alone contains a 5th the population of the US, its not a tiny market that they're just gonna casually leave @luna @IzzyOnDroid the fines would probably have to be approaching a trillion dollars for them to care. @luna @IzzyOnDroid I am curious what the fines would be, actually. |
@luna @IzzyOnDroid We will see, I don’t think y’all in Europe realize A: how tiny Europe is, and B: how incredibly incredibly wealthy Apple is.
It would take the loss of either India, China, or the US as a market for them to care.
France, Britain, Hell, all of the EU, they really couldn’t care less, and every attempt so far from y’all to rein them in at all has resulted in failure.
It’s mean-sounding, but Europe doesn’t have enough customers for Apple to care, not even close, and this is pretty easy to see in both their history as a company, and sales data
