    Good thing it is banned in the EU or at least in the Netherlands 🇳🇱

    EDIT: It is not banned it needs to be approved by GDPR

            They already don’t comply with it with FB lol, they have just got away with it for so long, believe it was mainly the the Irish regulators fault who is either some form of captured, anti-privacy or being bribed.

            But it went to the EU level board, not sure how all that works, who finally hit then with a $1.2 billion fine and the demand they come into compliance. So maybe it’s off the back of that as well has gave them some pause

      Seeing some articles reference the Digital Market Act, which seems to be around large platforms online, which seems to be more akin to competition law.

      They did launch it in the UK, which still has all the GDPR laws/principles, just outside the EU context. Then again maybe that means any enforcement activities by the UK would start from scratch. Or maybe the lack of recent UK enforcement activity encouraged them
