The new digital omnibus of the European Commission is essentially deregulating Big Tech. Where are the Belgian politicians giving a damn about our digital rights?

Ahja, de GDPR (AVG). De regels die iedereen inclusief je lokale kaartersclub moet volgen. De regels die niemand begrijpt en dus iedereen maar doet alsof ze ze volgen.
Ik heb zo wat DPO’s zien passeren om samen met juristen en soms zelfs een gespecialiseerd advocatenbureau proberen documenten goed in te vullen, maar uiteindelijk is het maar window dressing en twijfel ik of alle EU bureaucraten het zelf wel helemaal snappen. Maar vooral niet toegeven en doen alsof je het naleeft, anders krijg je zware boetes.
when we have some home grown big tech we can think about actually regulating it sensibly instead of the current insane law printer approach that gave us cookie banners, gdpr that no one follows properly, and is trying to ban encryption every 6 months. or better yet just keep the government out of the internet
This is a good thing.
If we want to be competitive, we have to make it so that a startup can bring a product to market without a law department and a few million euros to abide by all our many many norms.
What do you think happens to your data when it goes overseas where they don’t have these laws and are actually able to make money with data? I am sure it would fare better if it stayed in the EU under a slightly less strict GDPR.
