Do you think it's right if a group of people (the EU) use their power to achieve goals, but somehow wrong wheh another group does the same?

Whether it's "right" depends on the goal of course, but in this case I'm not understanding your point because nobody is prosecuting those companies for doing this.

In any case, these kinds of blanket statements are not very useful, because each case tends to be judged on its own merits. For example, yes, enough people believe that monopolistic tactics are not "right" and laws reflect that.

But the goals are clear in this case, no? The regulator said "do X the way we tell you to" and the regulated decided to do Y instead in order not to break the regulation requiring them to do X in a certain way.

		Sure, but what precisely is your concern? That people aren't pleased about being caught in the crossfire and are complaining about it, and you want them to stop doing that?

yes, because that second "group" is actually an international corporation leeching on society to increase its value for small group of investors

Is it okay for Russia to influence elections in the EU or the US by spreading misinformation?

This is also an instance of a group using its power.
