Jack Zipes believes that the Grimms made the change in later editions because they “held motherhood sacred”.[4]

Strict rules on EU data and heavy fines for breaking those. Tariffs on taking EU data out of the EU. Changing tax rules on services and advertising. Basically make having a foreign digital service in the EU unprofitable.

USA us now classified as chaotic evil. Never know what wacko stuff is going to happen today.

China is more lawful evil. It has its own logic so you can at least anticipate on what it’s gonna do and work with it.

He’s not completely wrong. EU can be nasty, but it takes time. It’s pretty bureaucratic, so it moves a lot slower than China. And at the moment EU is moving towards killing the US’s entire digital services in retaliation now that normal negotiations failed.
