If X fails to respond to the Commission’s fine, 70% of respondents were supportive of repercussions [3]. Among those, between 17-28% think that further fines should be given to X, between 23-29% believe X should be banned, and the largest segment - between 40-52% of those in favour of repercussions - believe that the Commission should fine and ban the social media service entirely from the EU [4].
Ban it, do it, we are not gonna cry!
Unfortunately, the other half of the people who don’t want it banned have all the political capital.
Shouldn’t they want it banned because it already broke the law? How many lines have to be crossed before anyone does anything?
Anarchism for the rich(law does not affect them), rugged police state for the poor,
I’m not clicking the link to read this but these sort of headlines are often a result of their survey intentionally wording things like this to spin the narrative. Anyone who does in fact want it banned immediately would still say yes to the question. I’d suspect there are many such folks across Europe.
I want it banned regardless :D
I think all USA/Israel social media application must be banned.
What is a Israel sozial media application?
All USA social media indirectly product of Israel .
American ones it seems like. American politicians sure love Israel for some reason.
i wish this was worldwide
100% of this European want X banned without further ado.

I mean if they break the law there should be some consequences.
Tired of waiting for consequences that show no sign of happening as yet. Best thing to do until such things come to pass would be to boycott the platform.
I want it banned here too.
Good.
Ditch it.It will have 0 to none effect of EU. And Mr.NaciSalute won’t get broke.Mastodon is the way.
I think you are mistaken. It will have a huge positive impact on the EU.
And ban Facebook too. It’s been breaking the law a lot longer!
So you suggest that people should see others in real life? Out and about? What are you, a savage?
Just imagine how funny it would be if people would just ditch all that shit.
i want it banned even if it doesnt
banning this website would be super good for Blue sky and mastodon
And why would not these be also banned shortly thereafter?
lol people will go to meta threads first, not that.
One step at a time…
More than half are ok with any company breaking the law?
I imagine some of them are okay with fines, or strongly worded letters.
According to a new YouGov survey, a vast majority of respondents in Germany, France, Spain, Italy and Poland (60-78%) think that the EU should take further action against X if it does not address breaches to European law brought forward by the Commission last year [1]. The majority of those (62%-73%) who wanted further action – and 47% of total participants – want X to be banned from the EU if it refuses to address these breaches [2]
20% being fine with it is still worrying to me.
20% of the population is just crazy and will believe in flat earth, young earth, essential oils, Jewish space lasers, 4d trump chess or bevolent ayatollahs.
