This is what happens when you rely on American tech companies. Apple is pulling shit with Europe, the home of “civilisation”, that feels like it’s straight out of a stupid reality show over regulations regarding sideloading and privacy. And clowns like this will regurgigate the dumbest and the most worn-out libertarian shit in first tier media outlets.

Tbh I don’t get the point behind GDPR. Is it genuinely meant to ensure privacy to some extent or is it just some form of protectionism against American tech companies?

    I love the GDPR, wish we had one here in America. But also Europe complaining about American tech is pretty funny, no one is stopping them from making their own Google or Facebook or whatever

      It’s not Europe that is complaining. At least in particular article. It’s US or one of its cronies (I did not check the author’s heritage) complaining about that American companies cannot have their way with EU because of regulations.
