Specifically, this is another Parliament vs Commission issue. The Commission loves to have little deals away from the public where everything is quietly smoothed over, while the Parliament is trying to build popular legitimacy.

Isn't Politico a sort of a pulp magazine?

All this so Meta and X can sell politically divisive and hateful advertising with zero transparency.

Isn't it strange how Washington makes laws in the EU?<p>I wonder if these lobbyists get paid a lot.

Is it just me or is there not actual meat to this article? Like what specifically are the rules at issue here?

I continue to find it bizarre that some Americans are offended that Europeans do not want to be dragged into the American corporate surveillance, advertising, and consumption cult. Will nothing be sovereign until Europe is also littered with personal injury attorney billboards, broadcasting pharmaceutical ads, and other pox marks of a degraded culture? Why search for a better way when you can normalize awful (because it's more profitable).
