European hotel owners are angry over the "best price" clause at the online booking giant they say had kept them from offering rooms for less on their own websites.
It’s not okay but the competition when it comes to hotel comes from a country hosting world’s biggest internment camps in Xinjiang, which, I would say, is worse than taking a cut off hotel bookings in a country that does bad things. Gotogate only sells flights as far as I know, not hotels

You’ve got that mixed up. Trip.com pays taxes to China, which is bad, but on the other hand Booking.com actively incentivises ethnic cleansing with its Israeli settlement listings. Benefiting people who are also doing bad things isn’t quite as bad as actively helping alone the bad thing. If Trip.com somehow helps the Uighur genocide I’ll change my position, but I don’t think that’s a thing.
First I’m not sure why it’s okay if it’s a European company profiteering from ethnic cleansing, second Gotogate exists and is Swedish.
Edit: Turns out Gotogate doesn’t do hotels.
“Stays” on Gotogate redirect you to Booking.com. Similarly, most listing from HomeToGo are just cross-links from Booking
Tried to check out the hotel offering and it redirected me to booking
