You will let our companies do what they like and no tea parties.

The US has insisted that the EU allow its big tech companies do what they like and have warned against pursuing "protectionist" technology policies against them.

The National Security Council, an arm of the White House, wrote last week to complain about the tone of recent comments about the EU's flagship tech regulation, as debates are about to begin in the European parliament.

"We are particularly concerned about recent comments by the European Parliament rapporteur for the Digital Markets Act, Andreas Schwab, who suggested the DMA should unquestionably target only the five biggest US firms", said the email.
