Why the Digital Omnibus Puts GDPR and EPrivacy at Aisk
- jruohonen 1y agoSo I suppose you just have to take it: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43445736 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43445736 And I especially like the "legitimate interests" (or whatever) to suck data even from the "edge".

Post-truth, really.
