@veroxii@neo2478 right, and in terms of PDO there’s not much Europe could retaliate with. What is there? Bourbon and Tennessee Whiskey? I think those are the only geographical indicators they have.

The EU has already brought in alternative app stores but I’m sure there are some other tech & IP considerations https://www.pluralistic.net/2025/01/15/beauty-eh/
