    We cannot stop collecting data about you because collecting the datum that you want to stop having your data collected failed.

    I wonder if the situation in Europe is different, where such bullshit is illegal.

        How dare they have an election system that lets them elect politicians that are actually doing what the people want instead of having to choose between bad and worse! It must be some forbidden knowledge for sure.

          Don’t get your idealism in a frenzy. The EU has been passing some interesting privacy laws recently, but politics is politics and the EU isn’t immune to lobbying, corruption and incompetence.

          Still way better than the US, i’ll give you that.
