I think more people should know about this. I didn’t know the Irish Council for Civil Liberties had a division called Enforce.
Johnny Ryan is doing incredible work. I’m also horrified by what Irish “regulators” have allowed big tech to do in the EU.

The big tech reckoning in Europe is already at hand.
But Ireland did get too comfortable with the Google money, so hopefully they can ween off of it without crashing the market.
Ideally this would create a boom of Irish-born services.
Big tech is getting some heat for anti-competitive practices. But the algorithms are still tearing the fabric of our societies, regulations and laws are not being enforced etc. I think the bulk of the work is ahead of us.
Edit: I’ve just been reading actually about some regulations being enforced so to counter my hyperbole I’ll add it here: https://www.straitstimes.com/world/europe/court-rules-eu-must-drop-strict-curbs-on-facebook-marketplace
