Can IT confirm?

Privacy in big tech is not driven with the mindset of “it’s better for the user”, but with “it’s better to cover our ass legally”.

Except it isn’t. Companies openly flagrantly get caught violating your privacy again, and again.

And the legal cost to do so is always, ALWAYS LESS than the profit made violating your privacy.

Privacy protection in America is dead.

Glad I live in Europe where a company gets sued for hundreds of millions for violating privacy

Wow a euro brag. Never seen that one before \s

But just to be clear Social Media is a trillion dollar industry in Europe. Hundreds of million dollar fines are still not enough.

Oh did I say millions? Decided to make a Google search. Last time we did this META had to pay 1.2 billion €
