Super rundown!

It’s hard to be optimistic about our ability to regulate these giants though when the Commission uses Prometric to recruit, who require Chrome; when the whole organisation is locked into Office and Teams (which is the same thing); when management are lapping up AI for the most mundane uses; etc.

Yes, those who know the internal works of the Commission can point out to several flaws and inconsistencies between what they say and what they do.

I use to define the European Commission as a hydra with a thousand heads. It can be the best one defending the seas while promoting ultra liberalism in trade, enable moving of worker across the border while not understanding remote work for its internal staff.

Let me position myself on the optimistic side regarding the DSA and DMA and those in the Commission who promoted them :)
