just grow a pair and ban twitter, spacex, starlink, and tesla from operating in europe already.
there's no good reason to let them operate.
They’re mostly all national security threats, especially with Elon and Putin having a special relationship.
I mean AfD is also pro-russia AND have neo-nazi's in its ranks.
They are at 20% in polls just before the german election.
I don't think many people have as many issues as they should have with russia or they just don't care.
Tesla is getting a buttload of cash from the EU soon in climate compensation (also Volvo but not so much).
this could create e-waste if managed improperly
don't ban starlink pls
Why not? Asking genuinely.
Ukraine and other countries where fixed infrastructure is failing iirc benefit from having low cost Internet access.
Have you never been to small and poor /s countries like Germany where this sometimes is the best option for getting internet access? /srs
Edit: Added tone indicators because no one got it
Whaaat?
Starlink, in some places in Germany is the only usable option. We have shitty infrastructure.
I think it was the statement that Germany is a "small and poor country" that they were whaaaating about.
They used that as sarcasm to highlight that Germany has no excuse for having shit infrastructure due to their wealth and economy size, unlike other countries.
Thanks, at least someone got it. We are the third biggest economy on this planet and still have the shittiest internet connection a developed country can possibly have, and all of that is only because one corrupt politician said (as in "was paid to say") that Television is the technology of the future. It's getting better, but holy fuck, how could this happen.
People in my state in the US have to get starlink sometimes because our infrastructure is so poor. I overheard a conversation a few weeks ago while working out in the country. A woman was saying she hated giving money to Musk but there was no good option there.
Mate tf are you on about? Small and poor like Germany?
In the context of Internet connectivity it might as well be (and I think that's what the joke was about). Fiber build-out is atrocious and large areas are stuck on 16mbps speeds. Coincidentally cell coverage also sucks in these areas so starlink is the only way to get Internet with decent speed.
That's not "small and poor".
Edit: Oh, it was a German "joke". Now I understand. :)
Although I'm REALLY skeptical that for more than maybe 1% of the population that Starlink is the best option.
German humor :)
maybe 1% of the population [...]
That would be more than 800k people, although the number of affected people does not make a difference. You don't even think about taking communication away from anyone without there being a replacement for them. And in the scope of Germany, this means that we'll need starlink access for the next decade or so.
Sarcasm.
ok so people who already have teslas should be fucked? if they will be forced to stop operation, some service offerings will not be available. nice
a car isnt a political statement for everybody, for some people its a fucking tool
edit: modifying software of cars in general is highly regulated. so banning tesla would create issues for people having those cars, i would love to “homebrew” them but hey, thats fucking illegal
As you said, they are services. They are not required.

How is it even related to services?
repair, checkup and support services maby? all the stuff a car needs in its lifetime? or did i get something wrong?
Dunno. Sounds like something anti-monopoly body should have banned anyway.
jup… should have….
