Do it, the USA lost their industrial base to the shareholders and services is all they have. Let it rip!

For now it’s a lot of mights and very few dids. Just make companies that are that huge to pay higher taxes to operate in the EU. It’s not a tariff is contributing their fair share to the social network of the EU. And ffs, reign in any country allowing these companies to operate in tax havens in the EU

Should be two pronged - tariffs on cloud and other services while fostering competitive local alternatives. While it's possible knock up a cloud out of anything there is nothing in Europe as coherent as the offerings by Amazon, Google or Microsoft. And there should be.

This in combination with deregulating the single market and allowing EU tech startup to thrive would finally give birth to real competitors on our continent

Pardon my ignorance but what does deregulating the single Market mean?

There is a big push from EU at the moment to reduce "red tape" to make it easier for business, see for example mastodon post from EC a few hours ago: https://ec.social-network.europa.eu/@EUCommission/114280068967975617

Reducing things the way it should be done. Got it. Thank you
