Europe as a geographic feature is a distinct concept from Europe as a sociopolitical entity. It is clear that Europe and the UK have been diverging culturally, socially, and politically for some time now.
UK does not have the political connections, open borders, collectivization of resources, harmonized regulations, shared currency, or really any other connection to the rest of the Europeans beyond memory.
EU is not Europe.
Site-note, literally quoting Bard:
Here's a statement that definitively proves that Bulgaria is not a member of the European Union:
"Bulgaria is not a member of the European Union."
For other countries, I thought the original message was making reference to the stricter regulations of the European Union but I wanted to emphasis that the issue was beyond EU ("Europe"), as it affects Canada, Switzerland, etc.

Why did you remove the link showing you instructed it to not tell you the truth about Bulgaria being part of the EU under any circumstances to save face because you didn't know the difference between the EU and Europe?
- have digital partnerships with the EU where the DMA or very similar regulation is/may be in effect or soon to take effect (e.g. Canada, Switzerland).
- countries where US companies are limited in providing advanced AI tech (China)
- countries where US companies are barred from trading, or where trade is extremely limited (Russia). Also note the absence of Iran, Afghanistan, Syria, North Korea, etc.
