Hey, here's an idea for GSMArena, make a poll about what people's opinions are regarding this situation. I'm very curious about the outcome

    Please shut it down in the US as well. Social Media has been a disaster for the human race

      They are correct. I've never been a fan of social media and have no Facebook/Instagram/Twitter drama

        Mmm, swap Facebook for Goethe and Balzac and lets not forget Molière , after all M Jourdain Is in The Elysee.
        What about Heinrich Von Ofterdingen, surely kids would get more from Novalis than drivel like Facebook

              Hudinited, 08 Feb 2022I feel like i comment too much but this made me think. If ... moreYES i have the same feeling, but this is really something good and healthy.

              And even better will be more firms will follow if they dont follow the laws.
              Its soooo faaarrr out, huge firms can have this power. Just see the opioid crisis in US, how hard it was to beat Sacklers.

                              Lots of ethical reason to lock this company down.

                              Have to ask you, are you a US citizen?

                                  Those firms do so much harm especially to young people, so F8UCK THE MONEY.
                                  So many people in EU dont want those giant big US criminal firms, if they can follow the laws.

                                  If suckerburger get kicked out of Europe, new media will follow immediately and im sure then they follow the laws then.

                                  Next in line... Apple... Gett out... Nexttt, Google go home, most tragic is they all are US firms, firms from the big sheriffs country 👀
