1247. Guru Meditation: And So What?!
I read this headline today: "Mark Zuckerberg, boss of Facebook (Meta), whose stock price plummeted last week threatened to cut off access to Facebook and Instagram in Europe to avoid having to comply with privacy laws."
Again: and so what?
Since when individuals owning companies should have the ability to have sovereign countries bend to their greedy and selfish will?
Does he think he is in a position to act like he were a country himself, imposing a commercial blockade to others, and to a whole Continent that is much?!
Well then, if his overweening pride makes him make such a threat let's take his word for it.

- It's not as if the world was actually in need of Facebook nor Instagram to properly and humanly function.
- European people using these so-called social-media could really benefit for a while from the lack of them, if only to be made aware of their futility as well as their redundancy - there are others on the market.
- Facebook and Instagram's stock price would immediately go down even deeper than just recently, which would go to show how much evanescent is the actual value of these advertisement-based and private data collecting companies...
I do hope that the European Parliament won't give an inch. We forced several times the GAFAM to pay their fair share of taxes after years of evasion. This time let's force them to respect the privacy of our citizens.
