Meloni heads Italy’s most rightwing government since the second world war. Italy’s criminal code punishes with a fine ranging from €1,000 to €5,000 anyone who “publicly defames the republic”, which includes the government, parliament, the courts and the army.
The EU is wiling to impose severe GDPR restrictions to stop its own citizens from revealing just how racist and oppressive their governments are on social networks, all the while and without a shred of irony criticizing the US, that does allow this liberty, when it is revealed through a means they do not afford their own citizens.
The EU is a lot about appearance, not about reality. I’m sure the EU will form some committee or other to polite suggest to Italy to not be fascist.
Lol wut XD
In European countries, authorities and people use the GDPR to argue against dashcams, security cams recording public space, and even disseminating smartphone recordings on social media, whereas in the US not only is it a no-brainer that you can do it, it has been used to great effect in regards to recording and denouncing gross violations and abuses that European media has no problem reproducing on their news networks.
Tell me what European country you are from and I will look up the fines people have received by doing things they could freely do in the US to report abuses due to the GDPR.
wait are you talking about the right to be forgotten?
No, but that’s also another example of a law that’s generally abused by the powerful and affluent to hide themselves from society.
A lot of downvotes, but no one taking up on my offer, which says a lot about how many of those downvotes come from people willing to inform and challenge themselves.
In your dreams XD
