  2. There are also negative sides to it. It slows down or makes outright impossible a digital administration or health services. Wild interpretations – supported partly by courts – make it hard for employers for example to manage workload and qualifications of employees. The health sector is a digital disaster, with lots of patient data stuck in paper or in proprietary formats on various devices or hospital specific software, reducing accessibility for patients, doctors, and making any analytics impossible (hint: doctors don‘t have the time to read a complete medical patient history). Where data protection really matters, towards the big Internet companies, it is failing.

  6. Super! Gratuliere!

    Hope Germany will export its data protection regulations, globally so we are safe anywhere from criminals, blackmail and unsoliticed AI 🇩🇪❤️🇱🇰
