Consent-O-Matic
.. ist eine #Browser-#Erweiterung, die CMP (Consent Management Provider) Pop-ups erkennt, die im Internet allgegenwärtig geworden sind und sie automatisch basierend auf ihren Präferenzen ausfüllen - auch wenn Sie ein "Dark Pattern" verwenden.
Nach ein paar Tagen testen kann ich sagen:
das Ding funktioniert für mich sehr gut.
Einfach zu verwenden und richtig hilfreich.

When I click "reject all non-essential cookies", that does not mean "ask me again next time." The cookie that tells you to piss off and not track me *is* essential, and if you're deliberately not saving that part to try and trick me into clicking "accept" next time, you're at minimum an asshole, and at worst violating the GDPR.
@hunderoute Agreed, at least the legal entity processing personal data is mandatory information in any #GDPR compliant data use policy.

Behind the language of “simplification” in the #DigitalOmnibus lies a fast-track to reopening and weakening the #GDPR & #eprivacy Directive, the core safeguards that protect our daily lives.
@itxaso examined the amendments article by article & what it means in real life for data protection (spoiler: more data harvesting, less control)
Individually, these changes are worrying. Together, they amount to a structural weakening of Europe’s privacy framework.

1/4 🚨 The Digital Omnibus proposals are here - and our rights and protections online are officially under threat 🚨
The proposals published today endanger the very core of EU's digital protections for people - the #GDPR, #ePrivacy and the #AIAct.
Weakening these safeguards would entrench #surveillance, profiling and algorithmic #discrimination in every aspect of society 🙅🏾

European Commission in bid to simplify digital rules
The European Commission will launch its long-awaited bid to simplify digital rules in an effort to reduce the regulatory burden on businesses and to promote European start ups in the global artificial intelligence race.Tony Connelly (RTÉ)
“If companies turn people into mere numbers, they could bypass the #GDPR, while continuing to track and manipulate them,” warned Schrems, suggesting this could give entire industries – like online advertising – a carve-out from #EU privacy rules.

Dice Político que la Comisión Europea planea modificar la normativa de privacidad #GDPR para facilitar el desarrollo de la IA.
Las empresas tendrían permitido procesar datos como creencias religiosas o salud.
El proyecto, llamado “digital omnibus”, reduce la protección de datos pseudonimizados y ofrece excepciones para el entrenamiento de IA.
Frente a esto, sólo nos queda el activismo.

#Microsoft nennt es „berechtigtes Interesse”, #GDPR Art. 6 (1) (f).
Die WP29-Gruppe (eine Art Vorläufer der EDPB) schrieb bereits 2014 in ihrer Analyse, dass „berechtigtes Interesse” NICHT für Zwecke verwendet werden darf, die weit über die angemessenen Erwartungen der betroffenen Person hinausgehen.
The latest article from Privacy Guides is live, authored by first-time guest contributor Peter Marsden: Ghosts in the Machine: The Fight for Privacy After Death takes a look at how even the best privacy laws around the world fail to protect those in death, and the profound way this lack of privacy harms not only the deceased's legacy, but the lives of their survivors.

by me:
Age verification laws have been multiplying in recent years. This is extremely bad news for your privacy rights.
While framed as a measure to
protect the children, collecting more data on every users of the internet endangers *everyone*, including the children.
This isn't a protective measure,
this is authoritarian policies normalizing mass surveillance and silencing dissidents.
It could very much become
the end of pseudonymity online,
if we do not push back against it.
