Thierry Breton resigns after EU AI Act and DSA criticism
🇪🇺 eu/acc
Today, Thierry Breton, the primary opponent of technological progress in the European Union resigned
He was responsible for:
- making technology companies Europe's #1 enemy, making many companies leave for the US
- the EU AI Act which made it impossible to build an AI startup in Europe
- the Digital Services Act which was used to stifle free speech in Europe (famously on here)
From his resignation letter it looks like he was fired
I think what that shows is that all the attention everyone is bringing on here on how Europe was going the wrong way is working
So please keep posting on here and telling your friends about the problems of Europe and where you feel Europe should be going instead
Because the EU does actually listen to us to steer its future, not immediately, but eventually
