He is not wrong though.
Number aside, if you have a hard requirement that in a committee board there should be someone from a minority then you will end in a situation where the committee perform worse because the "forced" member has no merit to be in, or at least it is an very high probability.

How does a battery seize control of a parent device when it is only connected by power wires?

It does not need to. Just set the battery on fire. Now set 100.000 batteries on fire, simultaneously, in a city, at night.

I think you are seeing this as racism when it is just some old good skepticism about a country that is famous for faking everything.

Maybe they really done what they say, or maybe it is just some proof of concept that need to be ported, if possible, to a viable product stage or maybe it is just a fake, we will see.

Well, the micro-USB and USB-C or the GDPR examples are here. Maybe is a little more difficult with services since it is way faster to change a service then a law.

What’s going to replace YT? Or insta?

Maybe nothing in the short term, but it is not that improbable that something will emerge. YT and insta are here just because they were the first, not that it is clear that there is a market (or a use for these kind of services), once you remove the one who don't follow the laws, other will emerge.

As far as I heard (but I am not too familiar) the CEO is essentially never in the office.

Maybe, but that not the point.

Yes, insubordination is the key point. But it’s also the key point of a protest. The take away is that Google doesn’t accept a protest (any more?)

There are limits though. While you are free to protest, I am entitled to not want you to protest in my home.

Are you so deluded to think that there are no other service provider in EU ?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Until the EU don't use the same tactic: follow the law or get out.

And what Meta is not understanding is that if the EU will arrive at this point, the "follow the law" will be as pedantic as it can be. And maybe even a little more.

Meta should learn from what happened during the Brexit's negotiations.

I think that there are two main reasons that caused them to be fired: insubordination since they occupied the CEO's office and refused to leave when asked (and probably he don't asked only one time) which led to the second reason, they were arrested for trespassing in the CEO's office.

I don't know, but it seems that at least it is enough to be arrested.

Reports seems to indicate that they were arrested for trespassing.

If there is a criminal charge or conviction I think you would be fired in most countries.
