Many privacy regulations Only benefit the big five tech companies (Linkedin charges $10 for one inmail). Any new regulation should exclusively address the big players first before pushing more regulation to startups and small biz. They are already struggling. If you dont do that we all endup with 4/5 companies. I would say oligopolies are bigger problem than privacy currently. We need more diversity in tech systems. YoY the diversity is going down if you take the important IT systems people use into account.
- sergeykish 6y agoWe have diversity https://tosdr.org/ https://tosdr.org/ (search "fingerprinting") Without regulations there is no advantage.
- markshepard 6y agoI mean to say - if you take market share into account we have less diversity in important systems people use.
- sergeykish 6y agoAnd I mean to say - we have diversity in applications that does not transfer in market share. We can use DDG but Google Search is not required to change. I understand your concern and don't know how to fix it. Click to consent does not distinguish terms. Would it help if there was a requirement to display rating like "PG-13" or Energy Star?
- spaced-out 6y ago>Many privacy regulations Only benefit the big five tech companies (Linkedin charges $10 for one inmail) I don't understand this part, are you implying LinkedIn's InMail price is due to regulation?
- markshepard 6y agoYes. Think of zoominfo’s new ipo. They are big and can work around the regulations (ex: CAN SPAM) of selling user information. Also according to CCPA, if you process 50,000 user records in a year (just 150 accounts per day) you will come under the purview. But big companies like facebook (https://www.cpomagazine.com/data-protection/facebook-refuses-to-change-web-tracking-practices-believes-that-ccpa-does-not-apply-to-them/ https://www.cpomagazine.com/data-protection/facebook-refuses...) will work around them.
