   Another thing that US pundits get wrong about EU antitrust action: the EU doesn't tell companies *how* to comply, the companies propose solutions and the EU tells them *if* is complies. They don't design your products for you. If a company goes for a browser ballot, say, it's because that's what it wants to do, not because the EU is making them do it that way.

     @ianbetteridge Also reminds me of the "cookie banner" thing which in most cases is actually malicious compliance if not outright in breach.
