MODERATORS
I'm so incredibly grateful that the EU is really trying to fix the internet. Also grateful to organization like the EFF that try to do the same. I recently became a donor as I think their work really is critical.
Can you believe the shit these companies would do if it wasn't for the EU and their regulation? It'd be a dystopia (well, more than it already is at least).
As much as I like the concept of GDPR, i think it didn't fo far enough. EU tried, but they should've thought it through a few more times. For example I would've loved for the cookie warning to have a mandated "No to everything, get fucked, and never ask about access from this IP again."-button
Bro that is mandated already in the law goddamn
