The right attitude would be seeing an OPs reason and conceding it to him no arguments needed, thus not starting with a flat out "knee jerk contradiction" for no good reason. (You're welcome and I'm an approachable communicative guy, but lets elevate things and set the bar high.) | |
| Aug 16, 2024 at 14:49 | comment | added | Lundin | @bad_coder As long as American media or Americans in general keep cheering for companies like Tesla, Facebook and Amazon, they set a very strange norm for how companies and company leadership should behave. If for example a company like Tesla is using employment policies from the 1800s, why would you expect them to follow data protection policies from the 2000s? It is a cultural problem, unfortunately. | |
| Aug 16, 2024 at 14:05 | comment | added | bad_coder | @Lundin "classic American company incompetence" saying that is bigotry, do you need examples in politics and business of this happening in Europe and everywhere else? What is true is that the GDPR is currently better in the EU and I get the impression this lack of concern with clear data protection puts the company in the early 2000's instead of 2024 - this one single issue by itself is more than enough motive to leave, it outweighs most other motives in gravity. | |
| Aug 16, 2024 at 8:28 | comment | added | Lundin | Users aren't leaving because of lack of user data protection, but because of classic American company incompetence, where bad decisions from upper management are continuously forced down through the organization, and nobody in the lower part of the hierarchy is allowed to question the bad decisions, but are rather encouraged to sell them. There's not a single such bad decision causing users to leave, but a very long list of them. This can't be fixed without very drastic measures. | |

They may try and avoid actually paying fines thanks to being "in another castle"... but in that case they probably would also have to say goodbye to any operation in the EU area. | |
