    The EU really is a force to be reckoned with. Long live the EU.

      tbh, I think they’re doing for profit and it just so happens that users are benefiting from it…

      They’re already working on laws such as Chat control, and Digital ID, and they want to regulate Open source, Nicco Loves Linux made some videos covering these topics

        I don’t think that’s how it works. Your location doesn’t change based on the app you have installed/open/etc. Neither do your purchasing habbits. It would be a waste of storage and compute to collect, process and store the same data twice. And even if the engineers haven’t bothered - at the end of the day it’s still a single set of data.
