Saw on #LinkedIn a European tech expert claiming that the #US is "by far the worst in the world in terms of privacy violations"
I honestly feel like #Asia doesn't exist to a lot of Europeans. Do they really not know how bad privacy and data laws are in many countries here? Have they not heard of the #GreatFirewall or how #Chinese users have basically zero data privacy?
Lots to critique in the US and of big tech, but that's not the way to do it.
