Wild that EU needs to do this. Where's the US in all this? The company is even based there.

The US (well, at least our legislators) are getting paid a lot of money to look the other way, and couldn't care less how children are affected.

Well, the endgame of that radicalization will be hangman's nooses being put up in the Capitol, last time the people putting it up were too stupid and led by a moron, but if they let it continue, someone half competent might try to come at them as well. They don't live that far away from society that if they let it catch fire, they won't get burned.

Why would the US be involved? It's not like Meta is Chinese or pro-Palestinian.
