As someone else mentioned it will make them more corruptable because elected officials will always have to be looking for the next thing for them. Better not piss off industry if you want that cushy corporate job after you’re done! Oh next year I’m jobless, better get what I can now! Not that the current system is perfect but it will make lobbyists and oligarchs more powerfull, not less.

I mean that seems reasonably punishing yeah, not nearly the hours worth of profit usually charged to companies breaking the law. I believe the EU can even enforce its own content moderation on the site and charge the costs of that to Musk so its pointless for a company to not follow the laws at that point …

I know right, they’re my favorite specifically because theyre not just spicy but delicious too! Especially the cheese one.
