Ready for another joke? 🥁
The Irish Data Protection Commission, which is responsible for most major technology companies ( #Meta, #Google, #Apple, #OpenAI, #Microsoft,...) actually imposes fines in just 0.26% of the cases it handles. And even when a fine is imposed, the money is almost never collected. 🤡
Nobody can't do anything about it. They offer you a ToS that technically says we own your DNA please accept, and there is no other way to use their services.
The solution is OSS. Host your stuff and cut all the Big Tech out.
With one second hand server you can host your mail, cloud, website, xmmp server, mastodon instance and crypto nodes.
From practice ... Law is an open door in a field, not a fence. What boundaries you mean?
I believe to construct my own fence to protect myself.
How would you characterize the Law in the Panama papers, 2008 economic crash and Epstein case ?
@idjansazov @noybeu exactly the way I described. Boundaries exist, a different matter is where they are set by each law, and on each jurisdiction, and how enforcement is done. But neither of those changes how it works.
The USA is not a really good example because it lost the rule of law, some years ago.
Lets talk London, Zurich then, or Hong Kong and everywhere there is HSBC.
The problem with the law is that if the people do not enforce it - it is just a "guidelines" or "recommendations". And for all I see most people does not even understand the law, even less to keep the judges or politicians accountable for.

For the time been even a sentence is enough so the news can spread around because now the journalist can't print nothing because the big techs start court battles in billion dollars of damages and bankrupt the journalist that spill the news.
But with sentence its different. Thank the journalist can have some back.
