> targeting the American tech companies specifically, without explicitly naming them in the law

No, it's targeting all big tech companies, not only American.

You can stop this pathetic lament that the evil EU is attacking innocent American corporations. It's typical american ignorance.

Actually they are not targeting big tech companies, EU made legislation to protect its citizens from being exploited in various ways, the big tech companies are targeting themselves by employing practices which aim to exploit users (including EU citizens) in various ways.

This entire thread is weird trying to blame EU when OpenAI has ChatGPT rolled out and Google does NOT roll out Bard. Then it is obviously NOT the regulations, but rather Google trying to do shitty stuff or just not being ready

…or that OpenAI is ignoring regulation while Google isn’t?

I don’t know which case is true but there are multiple interpretations, unless you’re saying this based on some fact?
