I 100% agree that the EU has the right to do this. It may even be in their best interest to do so (idk, I'm not European).

My point is more that it's not "justice" in the criminal-justice sense (eg: consequences for murder/robbery). It's economic policy, largely orthogonal to "justice".






It might not be "justice" to you in the narrow definition you are creating, but fair economic and user privacy rules are justice to me and likely to most. I don't find it orthogonal to justice at all.

Yeah, no. If that was the case they would not fine companies based in the EU. Guess what? They are also going after companies based in the EU.

Your argument holds very little water.
