Most things are better in other countries than the US. Some days I believe the Government is actively trying to kill us

Apple has legit said to other countries "no, no, no, we don't sell YOU guys that stuff. We sell it to the dumbass Americans."

EU forces Apple to not use anti-consumer and unfair techniques so they hate selling on the market.

Skill issue, Apple is terrible anyway.

The worst offenders I think are websites blocking access for the EU due to the GDPR. But then wrapping that message in some corporate lies like "we value your privacy..." if you valued privacy truly, the GDPR wouldn't be an issue.

I like to open an incognito page just for those so they don't get anything

I kind of wanna give you an award for this. The food that our own country produces and exports is worse here than abroad. Our pharmaceutical products that we make are sold to us for triple what they charge elsewhere. I think they are trying to kill us. Our technology companies have better personal data protections for overseas countries than our own. We are just a piggy bank to be mined and exploited. All you do need to do buy off some legislators and they'll let you do whatever you want.

It's the lack thereof - you've been lowballed on everything, yet you absolutely refuse to use any tools which could give the little guy a little leverage.

It's absolutely crazy, yet it also appears to be your choice, so who am I to judge.

Stop eating bear meat pal, it's not doing the mush between your ears any favours.
