European regulators just dropped a bombshell fine on a major social platform—and here's the twist: they're hitting the founder personally too. Not just the company. The individual.
Talk about escalation. When enforcement agencies start targeting executives in their personal capacity, that's a different ballgame entirely. Some are calling it accountability. Others? Overreach bordering on vindictive.
The response brewing? Let's just say reciprocity might be on the table. What happens when platforms and their leaders decide to push back with equal force? This could set a wild precedent for how tech giants and governments clash moving forward.

Nah, this is just the beginning. Europe is getting serious—founders being personally fined will scare off a lot of people.

Damn, this time they're really getting tough—personal fines... Once this threshold is set, what will happen next?

Well, now Europe really wants to go head-to-head with tech giants, not even sparing personal accounts... that's pretty intense.
