@Nonilex what @EUCommission & @europarl_en did not consider are actual #Tariffs and #Taxes on #US #Tech, like #Software & #Services with a #PriceFreeze to protect consumers (similar to #OilPriceCap):

• Demanding a 500% #tariff on #ClosedSourceSoftware and 400% tariff on #PaymentServices would be overdue!

@PublicNuisance @athairbirb @ademalsasa #Framwork says their laptop is “designed to last”. Well a very critical part of #futureProofing any updatable device (e.g. a laptop) is absence of #closedsourcesoftware. As soon as you have one non-free closed source component, the life of that device is inherently limited. The extent of that artificial limitation depends on which component.
