Hahahahahaha, the Irish Data Protection Commission is and always has been a sick joke.

Now they’ve just become a parody of themselves.

If you’re surprised by this, you haven’t been paying attention:

In the EU, the Irish DPC doesn’t enforce GDPR, @noybeu does.

CC The muppets at @EUCommission – your Single Market for Institutional Corruption is doing great, sweetie.

Careless people

Notes from “Careless People: A story of where I used to work: Power. Greed. Madness.” by Sarah-Wynn Williams

@aral Oh dear.

I don't read books like these for the same reason, and reading the retelling of how these conversations go don't make me happy, either.

I abhor what big tech corps do. But I am even angrier about the politics. It's always people in power, elected by the people, backstabbing the very populace they were meant to represent.

It's always betrayal that follows greed.

Ugh.
