Hey @EUCommission, you want to incentivise small sustainable online organisations in the EU (e.g., small not-for-profits like Small Technology Foundation) as an alternative to Big Tech?

Raise the EU's €10,000 cross-border OSS threshold to €1M (or even €10M).

You’ll still stop Big Tech corporations from jurisdiction shopping and you’ll remove the compliance and accounting burden on tiny and small businesses so we don’t end up either needing merchants of record or, as I’m sure many do, fly under the radar and hope you don’t get noticed. You might even end up *increasing* tax revenue because of it (it’s not revenue if you can’t collect it.)

(Anyway, just an idea… I won’t hold my breath or anything.)
