My “not a book review” of Careless People – the book Facebook doesn’t want you to read.
With highlights on Ireland’s complicity and the lengths people farmers (as I call them) will go to to appease authoritarian regimes like China.

It’s clear from this that Ireland should be stripped of the authority to enforce GDPR and, really, people farmers – and the business model of people farming in general – should be banned in the EU.
(Don’t hold your breaths.)

For quite some time I knew that the #irish #dataprotection institution was an underfunded, understaffed, weak #pontemkin village #bigtech was taking advantage of - and only #noyb was really getting on their nerves.
I ordered it yesterday and will have the book in my hands tomorrow ( certainly not from #Amazon, but local bookshop! )
Well ... feels like another not so nice day coming.
