Oh nooooo - a frown!!!!!111!!!eleventy
From Pixy Misa:
Europe is threatening to frown at Twitter if Elon Musk closes all the company's European offices and tells the tiny-minded fascists of the EU to take a hike (Tech Crunch)
For "appropriateness of the expertise and resources allocated" read: "Shuttering local offices and canning EU staff will be frowned upon - hard."
That idiocy is Tech Crunch's own wording, but it's understandable because EU officials actually said this:
For those platforms that the Commission will designate as very large online platforms, the risk management obligations also include a strong component on the appropriateness of the resources allocated to managing societal risks in the Union. Among other matters, the Commission will scrutinise the appropriateness of the expertise and resources allocated, as well as the way they organise their compliance function.
The appropriate thing to do is for Musk to close down all operations in Europe and direct users at a US-based portal to pay their $8.
It's not like Europe is going to create its own social network.
