Have you ticked too many boxes when signing up for that cool new app?Fear not. If you live in the EU or deal with EU businesses, you are in control of your personal data. Since 2018, GDPR has changed how personal data are processed. Now, we are at work to: ▶ Define who can use what data under what conditions (Data Act) ▶ Help people exercise their rights (Data Governance Act) ▶ Ensure that #AI respects your rights (AI Act) On #DataProtection Day, how do you protect your data?

@EU_Commission How about defining what an essential cookie is, and making it the legal default, so I don't have to endlessly approve them.... That would be more useful.

@EU_Commission Can you also pass regulation that lets me set my cookie preferences in the browser so that I don't have to click a button (or more) about cookies on every single website I visit?

@EU_Commission using free software every day. I use @fedora as Operative System and @signalapp as Instant Messaging app. The future is free software and decentralization.

@EU_Commission GDPR is the best! I have used it to remove my personal data from a company to stop them sending a ton of marketing texts and emails after i cancelled my order.

@EU_Commission i use @vivaldibrowser to block trackers. They have integrated a function to block those pesky banners https://help.vivaldi.com/desktop/privacy/cookies/#Hide_Cookie_warningsNot quite as effective as uBlock Origin but does the job.

@EU_Commission That's great (really) but it would be even better if you'd legally mandate an easy to use, simple, standardised form, (hopefully to include a summary reject button for cookies and a summary reject button for 'legitimate' interest). All sites should be forced to use the same standard form. Should also mandate browsers have a 'GDPR privacy policy' settings (cookies & legitimate interest, etc), so the user's choice can be set once and each site uses that policy, rather than the draining randomly styled pop-up we currently get.#gdpr #privacy #privacymatters

@EU_Commission hey, while we're at it, do you also want to comment on the proposed extended Chat Control legislation? You know, the one where you would force service providers to expose all of our digital communications, not just metadata, to automated government scrutiny?Go ahead. Please, tell me more about how this is great for my privacy.https://www.theverge.com/2022/5/11/23066683/eu-child-abuse-grooming-scanning-messaging-apps-break-encryption-fears

@EU_Commission We do not only need strong laws, but also strong agencies which enforce the laws! There is a lot to be done.

@EU_Commission that cookie banner does not work well, as the modern sites designer, I recommend you making decline a link-like instead of a button, it should be grey and barely visible, accept should be of inviting green colour on the green. For law reasons there needs to be a preferences link too, make it grey and unnoticeable too, and if user clicks it, make sure to put save link at the bottom while having our lovely green Accept all visible at all times. Here you go, hope this is helpful. /hj

@EU_Commission as always, legislator is a decade late, even when not corrupted. Targeting users without cookies is trivial, selling data even more. The problem is persons with enormous power that suck our lives for cash. Only sane response is to forbid enormous powers of any sort, by any means necessary.

@EU_Commission Except those cookie consent banners are the most annoying heaps of shit ever created, almost always they are shoved in our face as soon as we load a site, and are mandatory to interact with before the main content can even be accessed.

@EU_Commission And here I am living in a country where cookie consent is still not required because our DPA has a rather creative interpretation of GDPR (apparently I automatically consent to cookies because my browser has a setting to deny cookies - which is set to accept by default 🤷♂️) #GDPR #Privacy

@EU_Commission cookie banners are typically an illegal creation of industry who try and make too many things to legally consent to, not a creation of european law. maybe don’t let your PR people be so quick to claim credit for them…

@EU_Commission ➡️ Getting a complete copy of your data from any website is almost impossible.➡️ Do you want to improve privacy? Make the cookie-form standard, with everything OFF by default and no inviting "Accept all" buttons around. These popups are designed to make the refusal as tedious as possible.➡️ It's ridiculous that websites have hundreds of third parties processing their "legitimate interests".

@EU_Commission I am not in control of my personal data, because the EU is planning to impose a mass surveillance act similar to the ones in China and Russia.If you were serious about privacy, you would stop the #MassSurveillance you are planning as it will effectively hand over control over my personal data to the governments of the EU
