I give it about 10 years before the EU is invaded by the US after corporate lobbying
Europeans People Party, large political party within the EU which is largely full of conservative right-wing folks with the german Ursula Gertrud von der Leyen at it’s top. She is also currently president of the European Commission and has been known to be involved in corruption and to favour company interests, as well as the rest of the fuckers in the EPP.
So I guess the context is: If EPP stays in power, that’s good for top-business-people, but bad for everyone else. Thereby detrimental for such competitive-practise-laws.
They can prohibit whatever they want, but how enforceable is it? Does Nvidia intend to play whack a mole by checking for translation layers?

Who said anything about heroes? Villains sometimes want to stop other villains, too. In fact, probably often.
You took my comment too seriously, it was just a joke.
But you also singled out Intel. Corporations aren’t heroes in general and AMD is also there. And EU is depicted as the villain, although it’s implied it’s the hero in the context of the meme.
Now imagine Microsoft banning the translation of DirectX to Vulkan. Could they do that? That would kill gaming on Linux in a snap.
Save us, EU. You’re our only hope. Sincerely, USA
This keeps happening—can you lot make some laws for a change?
Edit: oh wait not like that
It’s cool I fixed it now.
America, moments after outlawing IVF
Just as an aside, I’m an American that emigrated to Canada. My province (BC) is currently passing a law to make one attempt at IVF free for everyone (starting midyear in 2025)… laws actually can be used for good.
Actually probably not. Not without major concessions. The pound will have to go which they will never accept unless they have absolutely no other choice
