You thought paying for your seat was annoying? If Meta's "Pay or Okay" approach is legitimised by the EDPB, paying an extra fee for your privacy will become a standard for other services as well.

@noybeu this is so great. With this more people will understand why google, meta, Amazon are free and can run rampant with free stuff.

Erinnert mich sofort an das Buch von Jaron Lanier
"Wem gehört die Zukunft?" von 2013.
Datenschutz als Luxusgut.

Jaron Lanier: Wem gehört die Zukunft? - Perlentaucher

Aus dem Amerikanischen von Dagma Mallett und Heike Schlatterer. Spätestens seit den Enthüllungen des Whistleblowers Edward Snowden ist klar: Die "schöne neue Welt" nimmt Gestalt...

@noybeu the sad things is that many people think meta and any big company has right... this kind of people (not so few) are not only selfdestructive but also dangerous... they put normal and free people under the "brand" of NOT ALLIGNED
