Bowing to pressure, EU set to relax AI, privacy rules

EU needs to stop listening to the giant companies and focus on the clean tech they are always delaying.

Shit article.

One planned change could unite many Europeans in relief however: the EU wants to get rid of those pesky cookie banners seeking users' consent for tracking on websites.

Yeah because they want to ALLOW ALL DATA COLLECTION BY DEFAULT INSTEAD

What a bunch of fucking idiots working for this website.

Among other things, the Commission proposes changes to core elements like the definition of "personal data" and all data subject's rights under the GDPR. The leaked draft also suggests to give AI companies (like Google, Meta or OpenAI) a blank check to suck up European's personal data. In addition, the special protection of sensitive data like health data, political views or sexual orientation would be significantly reduced. Also, remote access to personal data on PCs or smart phones without consent of the user would be enabled.

Basically "Hey Microsoft, we saw what you are doing with Windows Recall and we fucking love it. Please continue extracting literally every piece of digital information about all humans on the planet"

Ban AI in EU. Let the healing begin.
