  • I doubt we will get there. It’s not the same situation. You don’t only get more money and stability, you also get services and better quality of life overall. Imagine you live in italy: pay a lot of taxes and have broken roads, trash everywhere, public transportation with high record absenteism so basically working half the time but for some reasons record high number of politicians and their salary is also record high. Meanwhile if you want to do research/teach you get the lowest wages in the EU, you look for jobs and everyone wants to hire you off the books, government keeps cutting healtcare/pensions… Especially if you learned another language you yend to run as far away from here, you may get up to 5 times your salary in italy and do what you actually wanna work on, and live better too. You may have to pay more taxes, but you’ll be able to afford it and get something in return too. Funny enough you could even have vacations in your own country since you’ll now be able to afford it lol










  • When you HAVE to use it at work and you have NO choice in the matter it’s really irritating seeing all these posts berating you instead of the company itself. Additionally most of the time most of these features come automatically disabled if you leave in the EU like me, cause of, you know, GDPR. So yes, they need to make it an optional feature because fines based on revenue are no joke. That said you are not gonna convince people by berating them with clown emojis, you’ll only prove that whatever you are advocating for is supported by a toxic community. But you do you…







  • Exactly, I remember that while studying GDPR an example for legitimate interest was a company that self-advertises to you: I get your email from the purchase you just made because I have legitimate interest in continuing my business and I want to be able to advertise myself to you again to survive in the market. But trust me, I’ll just use it for the legitimate interest!
