In two button presses, users can (and do) completely opt out of every setting, often without even knowing what they are doing

What speculative horseshit.

For me, too, this was the point that triggered my reaction.

Never thought of seeing a piece supporting ads and decrying EU strict privacy rules (which aren't that strict, mostly just common sense). on the fediverse but there's a first for everything I guess.

It was originally posted on LinkedIn. I think it's here for us to point and laugh at.

An article being posted doesn't mean that the opinions expressed in the article are viewed favorably.

At least as far as poo-pooing EU legislation, I've seen a decent amount of it on here and have even participated. Problem is that the Europeans don't tend to be able to handle much criticism and will dogpile anyone who brings up any concerns, valid or invalid.
