EU tech-laws VS big US tech-companies

*Europe "must not be bullied" by Trump and Musk on tech laws, NGOs say.*

I think the EU should resist the bullshitter on every demand that would strengthen his power.

Bullies generally exaggerate their strength and pretend to be invincible. But they always have weakpoints too. The first surrender makes the bully stronger — so almost always you should resist the first demand/threat.

The only exception that occurs to me is when you are rapidly building your strength and have real reasons to think you will have a better chance of winning if you wait for that.
