Donald Trump wants Europe to stop regulating Big Tech. Will it bend?
President Donald Trump and the European Union may have struck a trade deal, but tensions between them over technology regulation persist. Trump offered European leaders a painful reminder of that early Tuesday.
As Europe slept, the American president threatened tariffs and restrictions on countries seen as unfairly regulating US tech firms.
“Digital Taxes, Digital Services Legislation, and Digital Markets Regulations are all designed to harm, or discriminate against, American Technology,” he posted on Truth Social, opening a new and potentially contentious chapter in the world’s continuing trade fight.
