They’ve had entire programs around trying to get the public engaged in this topic. I’ve watched many of their YouTube presentations.. all with less than 100 views when I watched them, despite them being uploaded for some time.

Sad to see the top comments in the thread not even bothering to discuss the technical reasons and legal implications behind this .. and instead everyone wants to just discuss unrelated anecdotes about their personal travels. The story here

I've never had this happen because I always call the hotel directly and ask them. Trusting a 3rd party booking system to have accurate up-to-date information is a fool's errand.

Not mobile outages, but generally the network gets saturated to the point of being practically unusable. You can see this effect in basically any island country that does not have access to an undersea cable.

Although they may exist, I’ve never seen a European provider prohibit tethering. One would hope such silliness should be illegal. I just googled it and see that Verizon in the US was successfully sued for blocking tethering .. one would hop

Even startups have to follow the law. Before the GDPR the EU had the 1995 Data Protection Directive, which you would have to comply with to have EU customers. You can’t just decide to not follow the law because you’re a startup.

Imagine if your bank told you they only close the vault when a customer asks. And they give you an excuse that it’s time consuming for them and you should respect their time. Would you bank with them? This is a pathetic response and you are

It doesn't appear you clicked the article. Microsoft Copilot is a full application, not a web browser. In this case you can choose not to open the application, that is always an option. Nobody is forcing you to use these tools.

It would be illegal to do this in the US or Europe without the business being PCI compliant first. You might want to offer up the country's laws you are familiar with before making offers like this.
