correct me if I’m wrong but I thought that some of the underlined principles of GDPR/ePrivacy/AI act was morality, human rights and ethics? Hmmmm
I’ve just seen a LinkedIn post of a tech founder and CEO stating that it is his moral obligation to fight the GDPR& ePrivacy directive and that the EU could advocate for human rights if we have less regulation on tech companies🙃 is this the upside down?

Regulating big tech shouldn’t be a this or that… if the commissioner wants to engage with big tech then so be it but there needs to be motivation for big tech to engage with regulators (i.e FINES!?!?).
I can understand why the commissioner said this, given that fines are often a drop in the ocean for big tech companies, but taking such a public stance on this is damaging and puts our rights at risk. Perhaps the ICO needs to reconsider its approach and move away from reprimands?

I wonder how this compares to EU statistics?
This highlights the importance of protecting privacy rights of all. Often we talk about data protection and privacy in the context of business and commercial risk. But let’s take a step back and remember that privacy is a fundamental human right.
