Thierry Breton represents 100+ year old European dinosaur companies as EU tech policy director
Thierry Breton's resume:
- CEO of France Telecom (founded in 1921)
- CEO of Thomson (founded 1893)
- CEO of Atos (founded as Sligos 1970)
+= Avg year 1928
His entire career he's represented the interests of 100+ year old European dinosaur companies
Now he's the EU policy director for tech, not far fetched to think he's just continuing fighting for those interests
Proof is in the pudding because all his policies are against not just US tech, but also EU tech, as they reduce the ability for EU startups to lead in tech at the world stage
Only European incumbent dinosaurs companies win while everybody else loses
