For that to happen, the West should start fostering prosperity and democracy worldwide, instead of extracting all the wealth and invading/overthrowing any government that doesn’t play along.

It has now emerged that after being informed that Safari was likely to fall under the DMA’s regulations, Apple filed formal a response to the European Union claiming that Safari is, in fact, “three distinct web browsers.” The company’s claim is based on the argument that Safari for iOS, iPadOS, and macOS are entirely...
I don’t want anyone to have the power to kick out people from public places for arbitrary reasons. Defending against Nazi’s isn’t an arbitrary reason though.
SpoilerKing capture is possible for both players, they both have two bishops on black yet no pawn missing, the edge pawns are in impossible positions and the queens and kings are developed despite the pawns and bishops still in their place. Did I miss something? I can’t see anything wrong with the knights or rooks.
Europe’s telecommunications operators have long held that some big Internet companies are driving a surge in Internet traffic and hogging their networks. A 2022 report by ETNO, Europe’s telecommunications operators lobby, claimed that more than half of the global data traffic originates from the servers of six US firms:...
Would you say the concept of “eurosphere” is a good thing? For me it is synonymous to the “eurobubble” and the large gap between EU institutions and citizens.

In case you don’t know, Cloudflare already controls a massive amount of websites, have access to their unencrypted traffic and are making the web inaccessible for people who use tor or noscript. They are a threat to the open web.
It’s not. Image hosting sites have existed for decades. Websites are not liable unless they have actual knowledge of illegal content and ignore takedown requests. Stop fearmongering.
Do you think it makes sense to run all kinds of tests and scans whenever someone comes in with a headache? It’s often impossible to be certain about the underlying illness so doctors have to make educates guesses. If it’s probably a mundane problem, they’re not going to continue digging just in case the patient might have a never-seen-before worm in their brain.
Because people are blowing this way out of proportion. Users uploading illegal content is always part of hosting a platform and lawmakers realized this decades ago. Platform hosters legally cannot be held liable for the content of their users unless they have actual knowledge of specific instances of illegal content. This is both in the US (section 230 of the Communications Decency Act) and the EU (chapter II of the Digital Services Act, previously the eCommerce directive)

Have you ever seen the statistics? The DPAs are massively underfunded and the Irish DPC in particular is notorious for ignoring complaints, to the point where the EU is considering launching infringement procedures against Ireland for not properly enforcing the GDPR. If you think they will take action on a complaint like this, you will get disappointed.
On the other hand, petitioning the courts to intervene is probably easier than you think. In some member states you don’t even need a lawyer, so all it takes is a bit of time and some court fees. I’m not saying it’s the preferred option, but realistically it is the shortest path to a result.
While it’s stupid that ISPs are using their monopolies to screw consumers, the concept of data caps is not as stupid as you might think.
You’re not just paying for the connection between you and the ISP, but also all the other data links that get your internet traffic to its destination. For example, those cables across the ocean are owned third parties and they charge money for every byte that goes through. It wouldn’t be unreasonable for ISPs to pass that cost to users.
Furthermore, most links are overprovisioned in order to keep costs down. For example, if you assume that users only use 10% of their bandwidth on average, that means you can fit 10x as many people on a connection (or maybe 8x to account for peaks). This does mean that users should be discouraged from using their full bandwidth for long durations, otherwise the network operators can’t overprovision as much and have to invest more in infrastructure.
I recently requested a deletion of my data on a platform using the GDPR, but instead of them deleting my data they replied to the request with instructions on how to delete my account using their profile tools....
DPAs don’t have the resources to take action on every single complaints. You can sue the controller or processor directly under article 79 if you want to be sure that an issue gets dealt with quickly.
