Je mehr ich von den #di_day lese, desto mehr freue ich mich. Unter anderem mit der Erkenntnis, dass ich mich schon Recht weit auf dem Pfad befinde.
#whatsapp ist eine Krake die ich nicht loswerde. Nach 3 Monaten Deinstallation musste ich wieder installieren weil meine Frau sich wie eine Sekretärin vorkam. Gleichzeitig bin ich aus allen alten Gruppen raus, und nur in 3 wieder eingestiegen.
#amazonecho hat sich leider auch sehr in meinen Haushalt geschlichen, da suche ich noch nach Alternativen

https://www.irishtimes.com/business/2026/01/12/data-protection-commission-owed-more-than-4-billion-in-fines/

Only €20M out of €4 billion in #GDPR fines paid.

"The Data Protection Commission (#DPC) is owed more than €4 billion in fines that have not been collected or are subject to legal challenge. The DPC hit companies – including firms in #BigTech – with more than €530 million in fines last year....
Over the past six years, the commission has levied an incredible €4.04 billion in fines, mostly on multinational technology companies. However, of that total, €4.02 billion remains uncollected and just €20 million has been paid in fines so far."

The majority of the number is associated with #whatsapp.

I wish I would have the power to delay court cases and not pay.

#Russia has #removed #WhatsApp, #Facebook, and #Instagram from a state-run online directory, effectively blocking access to the apps without any workarounds. The move follows months of pressure on users to switch to state-controlled alternatives. Millions of Russians were abruptly cut off from the encrypted messaging service. https://www.ft.com/content/468ebeec-3d38-4f8c-8513-97f533d8f43b?eicker.news #tech #media #news
