5/ The Article 88b standards haven't been written yet. The standardisation process starts soon. This is the window to shape it — before the advertising industry writes a standard that serves their interests, not yours.

Europeans spend 575 million hours/year clicking cookie banners. 90% just hit Accept All. 57% of sites keep tracking you even after you say no. The EU Digital Omnibus is supposed to fix this. But the standards haven't been written yet. Who writes them matters. More on Tuesday

Does the GDPR really apply to your U.S. company? Many U.S. tech businesses assume the GDPR is “only for companies based in Europe.” In reality, the regulation has extraterritorial reach. Discover more in our latest blog article: techgdpr.com/blog/does-the-g… #GDPR #DataPrivacy

These are the hero nations for your privacy in Europe.
Replying to @NickSzabo4
Germany, Poland, Austria, the Netherlands, Czechia, Finland, Luxembourg, and Belgium opposed Chat Control. EU lawmakers needed countries representing 65% of the EU population to pass it, but Germany’s last-minute opposition blocked it. They will attempt another vote in December.

I've been looking at GDPR roles in blockchains (e.g. nodes, miners, developers) for as long as the GDPR has been around, and the @EU_EDPB 's guidance on blockchain that dropped last week confirmed again: > There is no go-to role definition, it all depends on the setup.
