The EU sacked its crusading grandstanding duo of Margrethe Vestager and Thierry Breton before the U.S. election, so it’s not entirely or even mostly about Trump. They’re just coming to their senses that a radical DMA interpretation isn’t going to change these companies, it would just turn the EU into more of a technological backwater than it already is.

@gruber

Oh boy, you Americans. And you wonder why you're hated so much.

You have enough troubles yourself. We'll be fine in our EU, thank you very much.

@marc_v_b If this new report is true, you will be fine, because you’re walking away from this DMA nonsense.

@gruber @marc_v_b the EU probably won’t walk back from the DMA. Von Der Leien (who is not elected) is just trying to save her position which has become precarious in recent months by brokering as much support as she can gather, including by courting far right parties. But her tenure fully depends on France, Germany and Italy agreeing with her choices. The second she loses any of those three she is history.
