    In all honesty there was a period of time I thought all hope was lost but EU seems to be the last knight standing against these greedy mf.

    We all have to bear in mind these lawmakers are fighting against enemies with near limitless resources so give credit where it is due and let’s back them up as much as possible!

          A lot of them are affiliated with the government of Ireland, which acts as a tax and legislatory haven for most of these companies in the EU. Only recently have member state data protection authorities started to bring cases forward, and IIRC Meta tried to argue itself out of a fine issued in Norway by saying that it needs to be fined in Ireland.
