      They’ll get people to click yes. None of these consent directed methods work. People aren’t reading or understanding what’s going on. This is like asking people to be chemistry experts so they can test and manage to buy safe food. https://twitter.com/ashk4n/status/1093507102956490752 …

      That’s only true so long as consumers are required to provide consent as a condition of using services. There’s a real possibility that this may crumblehttps://www.washingtonpost.com/news/monkey-cage/wp/2018/05/25/heres-how-europes-gdpr-may-take-down-facebook/?utm_term=.9bad182822d5 …

      I feel like anything consent-based, they'll be able to get around. They'll eventually find a way to get people to click on yes because there are so many things you can't do without Facebook, and at worst, it can offer extra services in return or tie it to messenger or something.

      Have just written longer thread on this - but if Max’s case succeeds, FB won’t be able to require consent in return either for Facebook, or for extra services, unless the data is a necessary part of those services being carried out. That would be a dagger in FB’s heart.

      Just so ... It may very possibly be that the likely economic fallout will make the ECJ gulp and reconsider. But while IANAL, the letter of the law seems pretty straightforward on this, and in Schrems' favor.

      We walked into this model of ad-tech (with all the tech bloat and privacy invasion and personalized profiling that brings so many other downsides) without even a factual understanding that it's that good for ad-targeting for products. Maybe they should take a broader view.

      Yeah, there is no way to figure all this out in one big go—has to evolve. There hasn't yet been a big jump requiring a fundamental rethink/shift. Still very early, though!

          Yep! Also, this wasn't unpredicted but there is the competitive disadvantage part to compliance that really is turning out to be true as far as I can tell, and that's interesting what, if any, policy and tech responses may be possible.

          It’s interesting how multiple forces are (to some extent) converging - EU antitrust, fears about manipulation, conservative rhetoric about librul SV bias, and increasing skepticism about the underlying value proposition of targeted marketing.

          Yes, things are set for potentially shifting gears here. Who knows? I personally don't think shifting gears would dethrone the giants, they would be most likely to be able adapt, but it could spur some much-needed tech innovation. (Which looks stale to me atm!)

          Facebook’s play, unsurprisingly, is to try to work the angles between them - invoking security and manipulation concerns as a reason why we need to have unified data sources across services e.g.
