Hopefully this does lead to a more substantial discussion on data privacy and that something will change, but the trend is not going in the right direction. First it was the disclosures on NSA's mass surveillance programs and now this... It seems privacy is becoming a luxury these days.
I don't believe that this particular scandal swayed the election in Trump's and that it is the result of many factors working over several decades. But maybe we will become a little more inclined to verify before we trust, to take some time to think critically and make informed decisions!
I believe that it will. In Europe, several companies already have won law suits against facebook and google, for privacy inflictions!
I guess that America will be next!
I doubt we will see a GDPR American version immediately, there is too much at stake for the yankees. They have right now one of the biggest lobbies.
I know, but even the biggest lobby in the states, the NRA is loosing support!
The others will probably follow!
People awaking?
They should according to me!
With all the shootings going in, the RFA lobby is loosing a lot of support.
We may see also a change in the financial lobby. They did cause some damage with all the FUD, but they didn’t reach their desired results. Som politicans who did support these lobbies will startto notice this a could/will change their ideas.
