This is the biggest win that the Icelandic right wing has had in a while after failing to rally people behind Iceland’s oligarchs and I’m genuinely annoyed at the EU for handing it to them

The nationalists and the right wing in Iceland are also having a field day with this, of course.

I see Cloudflare is having global issues.

Cue the articles and social posts where everyone agrees it’s very bad how consolidated the web has become being controlled by such a small amount of giant companies.

Then see how everyone then goes back to not changing anything about it.

More seriously, we should brace for the when the tech industry will ask to be bailed out. They dug a trillion-sized hole of debt to build datacenters for AI that nobody needs or wants. They will try to offload their stupid mistakes on the public and WE WILL NOT LET THEM.

Important context here is that one of the largest silicon metal plant in Iceland was closed this summer because of tariffs (current and upcoming) and being undercut by cheap Chinese metal.

The hope was that production could be restarted in a few months

It's actually likely that the EU's decision will wipe out the industry here in Iceland

“Commission imposes definitive safeguard measures on certain ferroalloys”

https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/ip%5F25%5F2698

The EU's unusual move of putting tariffs on countries that are ostensibly a part of the single market—Iceland and Norway—has very effectively killed off their own campaign to get us to join the EU

Support for EU membership in Iceland rarely polls for more than just over 50%. Now a simple "EU treats small countries in the single market like garbage" means the upcoming referendum has no chance
