That is why you should be happy about GDPR as it covers all your use-cases.
GDPR is actually great but no one reads it and only listens some scaremongering by companies that are hurt by it. The problem of mass surveillance and abuse of personal data is also huge. But again no one thinks about it outside some cookies and ads.
Enjoy watching about GDPR: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-stjktAu-7k https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-stjktAu-7k (best done presentation that I was able to find on internet, you might notice in first few minutes that is not about you having access to PII but about using PII - or: I have access to a gun. But I wont use or abuse it. As I might end in jail.)
And reading about privacy and business abuse of it: https://www.amazon.com/Age-Surveillance-Capitalism-Future-Frontier/dp/1610395697 https://www.amazon.com/Age-Surveillance-Capitalism-Future-Fr... (you will love Pokemon part).
There are more, but those two are best sources I am aware of to get you up to speed.
Then we can talk again.

- stiray 4y agoYou mean article? + recitals. It is nice to know what are your rights and since when :) Anyway, check this beauty of simplicity: https://youtu.be/-stjktAu-7k?t=402 https://youtu.be/-stjktAu-7k?t=402 "Be nice and you wont go far wrong" Or maybe this one, also very nice: https://youtu.be/-stjktAu-7k?t=1464 https://youtu.be/-stjktAu-7k?t=1464 I consider GDPR very fair. The only "issue" (only for corrupt companies) with it is that it takes 'Wild' out of the Wild West of Internet.
