I am glad to see the pendulum shift in favor of consumers and privacy, although the libertarian side of me makes me question the need for more laws dictating how businesses behave.
- tobylane 11y agoHow do you usually deal with those two somewhat opposing views?
- logn 11y agoOn an issue-by-issue basis. In this case I'd want the regulations to apply to Google, Apple, Mozilla, and MS web browsers (only) and force those browsers to display a boilerplate notice about cookies when they're detected... rather than putting the burden on the much larger set of end websites and API providers. In general there's not a permanent way to reconcile consumer rights with business rights. One thing that would help a lot is to restrict/ban money in politics so that at least each side of the debate has a more equal voice. Although in this case the side without money won. Personally I guess my outlook is that of a moderate... or maybe a left-leaning libertarian.
