Google is a surveillance capitalist. It is a factory farm that extracts from and exploits people. Why do you want to create a “Google of Europe?” Why do you want Europe to capitulate to Silicon Valley’s digital imperialism and become its taxpayer-paid R&D department?

Thanks – but I described the funding model the EU should be using for technology, not the one it is. Today, we fund startups. If they fail, the EU taxpayer foots the bill. If they succeed, they are bought by Silicon Valley and become part of the surveillance machine.

So, within our current capitulation to Silicon Valley’s digital imperialism, the EU functions as a taxpayer-supported free research & development development for Silicon Valley. We need far better use of our funds—to invest in a healthy commons not in the tragedy of the commons.

I said "current" and I meant "current" - not "hypothetical." Focus on value creation, not on value extraction.
