This is a really strange way to attempt to silence my opinion.

Yes I do have issues with blurry laws. My current country is not in the EU, though until recently I was a resident of an EU country also with blurry laws. Am I allowed to have an opinion now?



For me it's sounds like a made up problem.

Again, most laws are blurry in a mathematical sense. This is the case since laws existed. And so and to a surprise for some HN people, we usually don't break them all day.

DMA is actually precise and rooted in competitions challenges all known. (E.g. the slack case was discussed very often) Complaining about the DMA is very strange. Also DMA targets big corpos, so needing a lawyer to understand all implications is again a none - issue.


> This is a really strange way to attempt to silence my opinion.

It's that your replies in this thread show a complete lack of understanding and a refusal to take in multiple people patiently explaining to you.

Apart from your bizarre posture that calling out your low quality posting constitutes "silencing" you.


The GP comment I was referring to asked where I live with no other context. The implication there is that my having an opinion, or at least sharing it, is somehow gated by whether I'm currently living in the EU.

We may have different interpretations of the law, or different opinions on what we think the laws should be, but that doesn't mean I am bizarrely posturing with no understanding of the law.
