Opt-in by default is illegal, so OP has every right to be annoyed.

You know, this explanation isn’t wrong, but having a printer manufacturer in your analogy show up as a victim just feels wrong.
No, it really doesn’t.
In competitors’ apps you can still integrate it with 3rd party services.
Teams keeps failing at the most basic features of a chat/calling app.
Such as?
Last I checked there’s still no alternative that doesn’t require some sacrifices.
You should search for something like “data protection office” in Czech language, they likely have tips on how to lodge a complaint.
edit: should be a good website: https://uoou.gov.cz/en/consultation/contact
I don’t use Kagi, but pretty sure they offer the plan you want.
That’s a really bad argument.
Texts got free (or cheap enough not to matter) way before having data enabled on your phone 24/7 was not too expensive.
If anything the world needs to trend towards smaller sizes with a focus on quality over quantity.
You do realize this is about doctors, right?
In what world do you live in where fewer doctors is an improvement?
Why? Do you really think Google started out evil, and not step by step by implementing “improvements” similar to this one?
I’m not planning to move anywhere tbh.
I do. If they go through with it than they’re not much better than Google.
If they don’t have enough money maybe they could start with cutting the CEO’s pay.
Seems like Organic Maps aren’t saints either.
Apparently the recent lack of updates on F-Droid is due to them including referral links for hotels and refusing to remove it or make it an opt-out feature…
Here’s a relevant issue if anyone’s interested: https://github.com/organicmaps/organicmaps/issues/7218
//edit
Looking at the discussions it’s even worse, the devs try to argue that F-Droid is being unfair and referral links shouldn’t be “misclassified” as ads…
Pretty sure that’s exactly what the other guy said… “Selling” your data can be worth it if you get good service in return, which is what Google used to provide, but now it barely works half the time.
Right, except if I knew beforehand which site has the results I need, why would I even use Google?
It’s not only legal to assume, it’s a requirement to default to “no”.
Tracking is opt-in.
I doubt they do. They just want to be “secure” and are unwilling to admit setting the level at “highest” is bullshit.
It’s not like you can easily get a new number and circumvent this “security” measure if you want… /s
Just because you could use it for knitting it doesn’t mean it was its purpose.
There’s not a lot of detail, but you can check on the Wiki why it’s ultimately an unlikely explanation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_dodecahedron#Purpose
There’s no “feds” in Europe.
And if you bothered to check it yourself instead of bitching about it based on some random guy’s post spreading FUD you might have found out Proton contributed to a legal fight that changed the Swiss law and made a repeat of this situation impossible.
Well, it is essentially what they’re doing already with DRM.
Try watching a full resolution stream on any paid streaming service using “bad” software, like Firefox or Linux.
I wouldn’t hold my breath. In some EU countries Honda doesn’t even admit this model exists anymore…
I’m guessing the relatively high price and low mileage might have killed it.
It’s EU’s GDPR.
Anything like a newsletter or marketing must be opt-in. And it cannot be bundled with other consent, that is they can’t refuse to provide you a service if opt-in isn’t absolutely necessary.
To be honest, not sure if any other countries have such laws.
