Icingdeath··on Trump temporarily drops tariffs to 10% for most countries
I think it's not that bad, when you consider all goods ands services:

"For technical reasons, there is not one “absolute” figure for the average tariffs on EU-US trade, as this calculation can be done in a variety of ways which produce quite varied results. Nevertheless, considering the actual trade in goods between the EU and US, in practice the average tariff rate on both sides is approximately 1%. In 2023, the US collected approximately €7 billion of tariffs on EU exports, and the EU collected approximately €3 billion on US exports."

          deny all;
  }
but this only helps if this vulnerability is triggered using the request uri otherwise it's useless
