Europeans have to register their address at all times with the government, need a passport to buy a SIM card, are prohibited from cash transactions above trivial amounts but at least they can contact the mandatory "data protection officer" and reject non-essential cookies!
- msm_ 3y agoEurope is not a single country. Nothing you said is true for every European country (or every EU country, if that's what you mean). But (despite your confusion about the European identity) I must admit you have a point. I think there is a mentality difference - Americans (USAnians?) are OK with being tracked by corporations, but hate any kind of government power. In Europe it's usually the opposite.
