"EU" - "crusade against overregulation"
Gosh you would wonder who funds politico these days 😂.
“Crusade against regulation” “regulatory killing spree” “gdpr next on the hit list”. By the EU. When, what, where did this start?
Am I just uninformed and cynical or what is this?
Ah darn Jeff. You made me look at Politico 😂
I guess the GDPR is an actual hindrance to a CBDC rollout...
Never waste an opportunity to further weaken privacy protection when at the same time you're bringing back chat control?
How does GDPR give anyone privacy protection? It's classic EU privacy theatre. All show, and lots of waste, but no benefit.
At least it increases the cost of compliance so that smaller providers and incumbent challengers will have a harder time.
The main problem is what they force you to share, and thus make prone to leaks.
It depends on your level of cynicism, which for me varies by the day. On a bad day I agree with you. But on a good day I'm reminded that sometimes these laws can be used *against* government: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_Retention_Directive
