I was going for a TNG reference. The HP reference was entirely unintentional, though may have been unconscious.

Dear Netherlands,

The pigboy is your problem now. Sorry not sorry.

Sincerely,

Everyone else

You can almost hear the EU lawyers cracking their knuckles and quietly saying: "about that user data protection."

Yeah, moving to the EU to escape regulation doesn't seem like a smart move.

Um... Did you read the article? It's about moving their EU Headquarters from Ireland to the Netherlands. GDPR applied before and after. This is specifically about Irish censorship requirements.

I‘m confused. Reddit claims it doesn’t host videos, just links to them but it absolutely does host videos.

Sounds like another case of US tech companies fucking with the web of EU regulations to nobody's benefit but their own.

It's no wonder they moved to another tax haven. Sorry, sorry. The EU doesn't have tax havens according to their own rules. Low tax threshold geographic jurisdictions.

Wait isn't Ireland an EU tax haven?
