I think we won’t have to endure that again.
Contrary to popular belief, the EU organs are able to learn. About half a year ago, I read statements of members which, if one would translate the political jargon, would amount to: “We haven’t foreseen such a blatant misuse of the law. These banners should never have happened and we would not have dreamed that corporations would shift the burden to the user. We are, in fact, quite furious about the whole thing.”
- phendrenad2 1y agoInteresting. But I don't think they have learned much if they think being really angry about it will help.
- gond 1y agoAre you saying that if some person is making a mistake, is angry about making the mistake at all, that this person will just happily do the mistake again because being angry about one’s own mistake is such a beautiful state of mind? I am unsure of how your mental model of ‘error correction’ is working without starting at the point of recognising an error in the first place - just deliberately ignoring for a moment whatever you emotionally might attach to it. I would say the just checked the fist step with bravery by openly admitting the mistake.
- phendrenad2 1y agoFair enough, getting mad is maybe the first step. Whenever person A tries to influence person B to act a certain way, and it backfires spectacularly, person A may be initially angry before realizing the blame is their own.
