Maybe I’ll manage to convince someone in my 300k employees company that they need to let me experiment working with a Linux laptop in case we’re forced out of windows.
Do it! Do it! Do it!
We’ll destroy American companies with Regulation 654/2014, aka a trade war kind of “Order 66”, which, among others, will void all IP rights of US companies in Europe.
Free piracy and many billions of losses for US companies. All because of Trump’s stupid big mouth. I’d love to see that!

Wouldn’t that also destroy everything European itself? So if I cancel Disneys & hollywoods copyrights and we could totally pirate every american movie like we want, who would pay to see a french one? Would local TV stations even produce their own content anymore?
Honestly, I don’t actually know what the IP stuff means. Maybe it will only be applied to patents?
I’m not a lawyer, I just read that this 654/2014 is the bazooka with which the EU will hit back, and I know that much more knowledgeable people than me seem very confident that the EU will hit back so hard when tariffed that Trump probably won’t do it. This regulation must be a big part of that.
No idea how it will actually be implemented but the EU Trade Bazooka is real.
This would open up so many opportunities for innovation that has been stifled by corporation patent trolling BS!
You don’t stand up to a bully by making concessions. Do it!
will void all IP rights of US companies in Europe.
scorched earth. Trump doesn’t know who hes fucking with.
Do it please. Our governments need to realize we HAVE to become more independent from the US.
Yes please. Give us more reasons to make EU economically less dependend on the US. 💙
