- 9dev 4y agoWell... that's kind of the deal with public broadcast fees in Germany. I also think the way it's collected is pretty weird, but that doesn't make the Rundfunkbeitrag a bad thing in general. You seem to be rambling about a lot of different things here, conflating some of them entirely unrelated to privacy laws: If you get caught torrenting a torrent poisoned by a private law firm, that hasn't got anything to do with German legislation. Schufa, on the other hand, claims to operate under existing DSGVO/GDPR law (even though that may be invalidated eventually); and other than the Rundfunkbeitrag, I'm not aware of any data sharing between the Meldebehörde and "public media", whoever that is.

There are laws that govern this. It's not some shady business.
- catslovepie 4y agoCalling public media cunts already gives me an idea what kind of person you are. Rundfunkbeitrag has to be paid by every household by law and is meant to ensure independent reporting by the public media, especially independent from political parties or corporations. We can argue how well this works in Germany, but there are quite a lot of examples around the world where it's way worse.
