The data protection laws are bad enough locally, having to also have the US in the mix would make it impossible to comprehend and try to control what goes where. I'm both in the "I have nothing to hide but I can't tell the future" and the "my data is pretty useless but fuck no I'm not going to let Apple/Google/Facebook make money from my data without my say so" camps. Besides that (and suddenly it becomes geopolitical) I dislike the US (not the people, the system) and if this is the only way I can tell the giant bully to F off, even though it will go unnoticed, well so be it. If I were a Twitter user I'd likely include hashtags like #SnowdenIsAHero, #RememberTheMauritanian, etc. in my tweets but I'm less angry than lazy.. |

Nice. I think that's probably a better approach to the internet than most people take.
Fair points. I see what you're saying about Balkanized regulations.
I guess in a perfect world, data protections rules/practices would have a global standardization.
I'm doubtful that would ever happen, though.
