I know I could google it but I prefer to discuss it here:

There are many interesting discussions about antitrust, companies being jerks and corporats making the world worse.

I think it would be cool to have a couple „rogue“ lawyers band together and start making class action law suits against corporations and states for using/enabling anti consumer/anti competitive practices.

I have never been asked to participate in such lawsuits so I assume its not being optimally presented online so far.

Feel free to correct my impression here.

TL;DR: I think we need more ways to fight against anti consumer/privacy stuff in courts all over the world.

    Fighting for data privacy doesn’t pay the bills.

      Louis Rossmann would like a word (allthough its r2r in his case and barely touching privacy but it has been said about r2r as well)

        Louis himself stated multiple times that he is fighting r2r beacuse it affects his livelihood and that he’s a piece of shit. While that is an important fight nonetheless, that’s not privacy directly.

          While those are all valid points and I have personally seen him say that on screen, it is the same ballpark. Right now, VPN providers are imo the ones who profit the most from privacy concerns. And express vpn alone makes a nice 600k a year (not a lot compared to google but not nothing either).

            Well to those who thinks VPN helps with privacy may buy a VPN but a VPN alone cannot protect your privacy.

              I‘m not sure what you‘re talking about. A vpn obviously is worth nothing on its own without people knowing what they‘re doing (or can’t do, like logging ingo any accounts such as google when using the vpn). Is that what you meant?
