In this regard, please see this LobbyControl appeal, as the Digital Markets Act (DMA) -another EU regulation designed to protect citizens from the power of tech giants - is currently not being enforced the way it should be enforced: Strengthening Europe’s shield against the power of Big Tech (in German)

Google, Meta, Apple & Co. are abusing their power. To stop them, the Digital Markets Act (DMA) must be consistently enforced. That’s why you should sign the appeal for an effective DMA now! With the Digital Markets Act (DMA), the EU has established important rules to protect us, from which we will all benefit. Yet the European Commission is delaying the enforcement of these rules. As long as corporations like Google face no consequences for violating the DMA, the law remains ineffective. Anyone who takes our democracy seriously enforces laws—even against Big Tech.

How do I help make my support for this apparent?

Trump will throw a fit about "anti-USAian attitudes" or whatever and the EU will fold to whatever demands he poses. "Leave GAFAM alone!" and that'll be that.

Or there will be a fine of... Two million dollars!

How will they ever survive it! 😿

It's cruel but it has to be done.

Again or it's the same case as couple of weeks ago?

Yes.

The article is from two weeks ago, so it's probably safe to assume they're the same case

No shit Sherlock!
