Compliance costs which you admit to. You can't fathom that this legislation benefited big business because you don't understand what is really going on. That is okay.

Believing any policy passed is not favoring big business is willfully ignoring reality at this point. As I stated, until these privacy violating megacorps are removed there is no privacy. The governments are complicit in this information grab as well.

Frankly, this law may have been a good start. So far I am not impressed.

That makes a lot of sense. A lot of what they do is for perceived injustice against them.

Transparent to them means they can be openly racist, sexist, and general xenophobic cunts.

What you are looking for is honest. They are not honest

Oh please, the entire law creates an undue burden on smaller firms while the larger ones skirt the rules. This continues to benefit big tech (and big business) and until Europe pushes them out completely everything you say is nonsense. If GDPR actually changes how these big companies steal and use data I will gladly eat my hat.

It was always this way. White man with a rifle is okay, brown man is obviously an agitator.

Guns are an oppressive force in the US. They have never and will never be used to stop oppression, just lead us to the new oppressive regime.

He is doing his job to protect property and power just like every other fascist in the country.

Awfully high horse you are on up there. Why don't you get down to reality that privacy protections in GDPR are just a lip service in a world ran by big tech.

Corporations rule and pretending laws are protecting you while they have control is rather ridiculous.

If you tend to be a person who agrees with majority opinions without creating your own then you will likely self-censor yourself.

Censorship starts first in the mind way before it even gets to the point of being expressed where others can see it.

People tend to focus on private and public censorship particularly when it comes to the first amendment. That doesn't even matter if you create an environment where dissent or differing opinion isn't allowed in the first place.

An oppressive government doesn't need to censor everyone. They censor themselves. They don't need to deploy agents to harass people. Your fellow citizens will harass you for them.

I was joking, but yes China has perfected and created even better technologies.

You certainly can't have centralized education without mandatory vaccination. It would be too great of a vector for mass infections.

I am fine with them withdrawing shots if they can effectively prove the disease has been eradicated. For instance, we no longer give small pox vaccinations.

I highly doubt this is what they are doing.
