Why can’t you restrict usage if you don’t comply with local laws? Why can companies like Facebook restrict usage of their new features like Threads in the EU then? Or some US news network restricting access from the EU?

But, like when they would say in their EULA, that people from Texas and Florida are not allowed, then by using the service would be breaking of EULA and the wikipedia foundation could theoretically say that they’re not operating there and it’s the users fault. Like could someone still sue them then?
What would happen, if they ignored the laws and did not geoblock Texas and Florida, just say they don’t operate there, but not restrict the users and still operate the way they operated until now?

Google Greek question mark 😁
The worst part is, that the people who voted for them are ashamed of their vote, because they either refused or lied on exit polls. At least now everyone can see how the government is making clowns of themselves (the speaker of the parliament drove into a traffic pole while drunk last week for example), they don’t act on their promises, argue with each other and lie. There are constant protests in the two largest cities of Bratislava and Košice, where many people gather to show the disagreement with the coalition and ridicule the politicians. A new meme emerged in the past few days about the fact, that more people signed a petition to remove the new minister of health from the office in a day, than the amount who voted for her in the election. There’s also an observable difference between what people in large cities and foreign mail-in voters vote for and what people from villages with worse access to information and who are targeted by the adverts and propaganda by the populist extremist politicians vote for. Also the opposition is theoretically more favoured than the current coalition, but because there are many different parties, the votes get split and many parties don’t get through the threshold that is needed for them to be even a part of the parliament and their seats get assigned to the ones who get there. We would probably benefit a lot from some kind of ranked-choice voting. We will see what happens in the upcoming presidential elections. At least it is a 2 round election, so the split opposition can get behind a common favourite.
