    I was about to write that i agree, but then i read the article. The ads were targeting people to sway public opinion on chat control, the very purpose GDPR was built to control. I expected more from our politicians.

    So, as embarrassing as twitter is, the intended purpose is worse.

    I’m glad GDPR seems to work.
