This is what happens when you rely on American tech companies. Apple is pulling shit with Europe, the home of "civilisation", that feels like it's straight out of a stupid reality show over regulations regarding sideloading and privacy. And clowns like this will regurgigate the dumbest and the most worn-out libertarian shit in first tier media outlets.
Tbh I don't get the point behind GDPR. Is it genuinely meant to ensure privacy to some extent or is it just some form of protectionism against American tech companies?
If they hate it so much they can leave. It'll be better for the EU in the long run.
