@david_ross Interesting - because around here a few people these days are trying just the opposite: Convince services such as Instapaper they're not coming from the EU so that they actually can get back to using tools and sites they used before... ;)

@david_ross @z428 what do we do on mastodon with all these meta tags?
@david_ross We should have this installed on our computers in Canterlot and promote it throughout Equestria
@david_ross I'd rather have non-EU people convince their govts to give them EU-style protections.
