Only €3.2B in income tax is wild.
Like seriously how much money does those companies make in Europe? Europe is getting ripped off.

Not that it matters much, most of these fines are watered down by the time a final sentence is issued in appeal court.

Trump raised easily taxes about goods, we should have done the same with all their tech companies by at least 15% up. That’s why EU should exist

The fact that the EU never fined tiktok is proof enough that this entire thing is based on the blessing of the Biden administration. I suspect these fines will become rarer in the Trump era.

The approach of the EU to corporations, their taxation and regulations is one I do prefer.
Now surveillance is another thing entirely (looking at you chat control), but this approach to corporations is something I like.

We are the 3rd biggest economy in the world. We don’t fine big tech often enough IMO. Make me the product? Pay my taxes, assholes.

Do you still love it when big tech refuses to implement chat conrol backdoors to their messaging services?

That’s chump change for those corporations – at this point they probably factor this cost in as their costs of operation.
