minus-squareFelixCress@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up12·2 years agoPerhaps EU can enforce these for you like it has done with Google: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cjw3e1pn741o "Europe’s top court has ruled Google must pay a €2.4bn (£2bn) fine handed down for abusing the market dominance of its shopping comparison service.
