What's fucked up is if you try to regulate it and make these companies have data retention policies. It creates a giant moat around them where no newcomer can have a chance to compete.
That's because you are not enforcing data portability at the same time. Having studied and discussed the GDPR at length within tech circles, I became convinced that data portability is the ultimate right and the key to ensure continuing innovation
Interoperability in general is the solution to walled gardens and monopolies that harm competition, consumers, and innovation.
that's fair. i work with data for a living so that probably biases my perspective
