One actor is state, that's not the hill to die on usually. Another are individuals and private companies who will never act in your interest, mostly directly against it.
I'd say its a worthy battle to wage, even if ie via EU but they need to step up the fines t be really punitive and demotivating for clearly long term amoral / illegal practices, ie tens of % of global revenue (income can and is trivially gamed for those of such size).
- SoftTalker 2y agoYes, I see the difference. If a reason existed, it's always been possible for an individual (private investigator, police, random infatuated person) to follow you around and track your movements in public. It's not been possible for a corporation to collect images and videos from thousands of sources and use facial recognition and AI to track the movements of many people in public and be able to associate that with their online activities, credit reports, and other records. Information that will then be subject to subpoena or worse, depending on the desires of governments that may eventually be in power in the future.
