And so do the courts. Give them some time to cook. How goes the popular American saying: We can do this the easy way or we can do this the hard way.
- echelon 9mo agoHow long? Lina Khan didn't move fast enough, then she was shown the door. Maybe the EU will persist where the US FTC/DOJ could not?
- Nextgrid 9mo ago> Give them some time to cook How long? I'm still waiting for the GDPR to actually be enforced meaningfully.
- jstummbillig 9mo agoHow is it not enforced "meaningfully"? (I don't know what is meaningful to you)
- Nextgrid 9mo agoHere's a good overview: https://noyb.eu/en/data-protection-day-are-europeans-really-protected https://noyb.eu/en/data-protection-day-are-europeans-really-... It's several years old by now but nothing has changed. It is still more profitable to breach the GDPR than to comply with it.
- gf000 9mo agoYou can get some really hefty fines for not playing by the rules. It's taken extremely seriously in basically every aspect of life in Europe. It's not enforced hard enough against US company empires like meta and the like unfortunately, but it absolutely works.
- Nextgrid 9mo agoCan != will. > It's taken extremely seriously in basically every aspect of life in Europe Yeah, like every single cookie banner out there not actually being compliant. A regulation can't be considered to be meaningfully enforced when every single storefront openly breaches it in total impunity for years.
- reedciccio 9mo agoYeah... Ask Schrems about the hefty fines and all that pretty things bright to Europeans by the GDPR. Come on! The GDPR is at best a pretty face to a rotten nothing-burger.
- pastage 9mo agoNot full filling your wishes can still mean useful. Be very specific when you critize the only set of laws that has done anything for users.
- _3u10 9mo agoNah it’s privacy. Gotta get consent from users. Cookies, GDPR, and all. Meta has learned from their fines, and isn’t opting users automatically into features.
