Yawn at empty generalisations with zero backing data.

right to forget, gdpr, now this. it’s a clusterfuck.

You just cited two of the most pro consumer laws in the world. I guess I know which industry you work for…

I enjoy all the website, banners, and I’m certain that my choices are being respectful fully.

Citing people breaking gdpr as a failing of the EU is like citing people speeding as a failing of traffic rules.

Why wouldn’t it be plausible that some traffic rules are ineffective and we can be critical of them?

i guess you don't live in europe.

your guess is wrong.

Signed up for a trade Union. Ended up in a dictatorship. Who elected Theery again???

Many countries do not elect leaders but parlamentarian representants with their own freedom to elect whoever they like. While I do not appreciate the way how the commission is assembled, it is just two election representations away from the people.

The commission has a regular change of both the people in it and the election body (aka the governments). I am not to strong on the definition of dictatorship but typically you have long living single person with malicious intent on top of it. Not the case here.

And on topic of trade union: we are now 20 or 30 years beyond that point depending which treaty you take. When you integrate trade, you agree on rules. When you establish rules, you need a government body. When you govern the four freedoms, how much is left you do not govern. The deeper you integrate trade, the more it becomes a single construct/country/union.

Everything else is just not logically (take international trade agreement eg. US/EU agreements... These are pseudo laws which have such a worse standing everywhere... That is so much worse)

Yeah just like I said. Voted for a trade Union - ended up in a dictatorship where some old bloke from France is telling you what you can read.

I’m not arguing about this - no one could - just commenting on the early signs of the unions breakdown.

> Who elected Theery again???

The people of France, when they elected the government that picked him, same way every commissioner is picked by their elected government.
