      Im convinced that the “nothing will happen” troupe online serves to lower the publics expectations which clears the path for corporations and government to rape and pillage. Reminds me of the voting is ineffective crowd. Same folks?

      Meta paid was ordered to pay a €1.2 billion fine last year and now tries a different approach to avoid similar fines in the future. This approach (“pay for privacy”) will be tried in court and this is where you declare that “Nothing will happen”? Really?

          Such a large fine can probably be tied up in court for a long time.

          My point is that Meta is constantly challenged by the EU and is forced to change their data-pig behaviour, so the claim that nothing ever happens is false.
