DPAs don't have the resources to take action on every single complaints. You can sue the controller or processor directly under article 79 if you want to be sure that an issue gets dealt with quickly.

While it's stupid that ISPs are using their monopolies to screw consumers, the concept of data caps is not as stupid as you might think.

You're not just paying for the connection between you and the ISP, but also all the other data links that get your internet traffic to its destination. For example, those cables across the ocean are owned third parties and they charge money for every byte that goes through. It wouldn't be unreasonable for ISPs to pass that cost to users.

Furthermore, most links are overprovisioned in order to keep costs down. For example, if you assume that users only use 10% of their bandwidth on average, that means you can fit 10x as many people on a connection (or maybe 8x to account for peaks). This does mean that users should be discouraged from using their full bandwidth for long durations, otherwise the network operators can't overprovision as much and have to invest more in infrastructure.

Using a VPN does exactly nothing against cookies or device fingerprinting.

The grand passant

For the last time: these language models are just regurgitating what people have said. They don't analyze or reason.

The real question is do you encrypt-and-sign or sign-and-encrypt?

Holy hell

It's slightly different. Your shell will see the /* and replace it with all the directories under /, e.g. /bin /dev /etc /home etc. So the actual command that runs is rm -rf /bin /dev /etc /home etc.

There is: !datahoarder@lemmy.ml

It's what the ePrivacy directive says, yes. But some get around this by claiming that it's necessary for the operation of the device/service (doubtful) or that it has limited effect on privacy (depends on exceptions created by member states)

National courts to take EU law into account. If you don't agree with their interpretation of EU law, your option is to appeal or ask to refer questions to the EUCJ.
