Trump, Musk, & Zuckerberg Attack EU Digital Regulations
A major offensive against European digital regulations and competition policy, spearheaded by Donald Trump and prominent American tech CEOs like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, is underway. Zuckerberg, previously a target of Trump’s ire, now pledges allegiance, echoing Musk’s rhetoric against “censorship” and aligning with Trump’s agenda to challenge global government oversight of American businesses. This coordinated effort, evidenced by Musk’s involvement in European political debates and Zuckerberg’s public criticism of EU fines, has sparked considerable concern in Brussels. The European Parliament plans to address this challenge through a future debate on EU digital regulation.
