    Wow you are arrogant without any justification to be so.

    What the hell has your weird president got to do with European Union law. The United States isn’t even affected by this law, Apple could if they wanted continue to use lightning cable in the United States. They won’t of course because that doesn’t make economic sense but that’s not the European union’s problem that’s apples.

    In Europe you cannot sue someone just because you feel like it, the courts won’t allow the case to go forward if it has no merit.

    The fact that you claim to have done research on this law is laughable, since you haven’t even noticed what countries it applies to.

      okay champ, People dont need to go to your towns lake to know that its just as wet as their lake.

      literally took me 5 seconds to find that slapp problems still exist in the EU,just like i said it would. you know why? because as i explained to someone else there are two types of legal systems, ones that redress harms and ones that protect those in power by punishment. In the ones that redress harms (which is fairly debatable if these even exist) the legal system MUST allow the abuse I described to occur in some form.

      Its literally just a property of how legal systems must function. it doesn’t matter what jurisdiction, or guardrails you’ve put in place. it will continue to happen because otherwise you don’t have a legal system that actually allows harms to be addressed if you prevent people from making their case about the harm being done; and part of doing that is a discovery process, which costs a shit ton of money/time for the defendent.

      I was using trumps nonsense as a fucking example because its a shared contextual of the problem that even you in the EU (or anywhere) would have likely heard about, but you’d have to actually think for a second to see how it applies. Another trumpy example of this phenomena is not paying people for their work. which then requires them to sue him. which he’d then proceed to drag the process out as long as possible, again draining their financial resources while its just a fixed ongoing cost for him. there are a million ways to abuse the legal system effectively.

      but yes, I’m the arrogant one for actually knowing my shit vs you who apparently can’t even make basic logical deductions and then gets in a tiff when its pointed out. shrug Now stop wasting peoples time with your nonsense.
