Creepy. And unlawful
Although it is causally presented
T-mobile launches App Insights which can specifically target the LGBTQ community https://www.adexchanger.com/mobile/t-mobile-rebrands-its-ad-biz-and-navigates-the-perilous-line-between-programmatic-and-privacy/
@finhstamsterdam Goh, was jij niet degene die beweerde dat de aanpak van witwassen strijdig is met de AVG!?
Ook nu begrijp je het wéér niet. Dit is een Nlds wetsvoorstel over een (op zich interessant) Nlds initiatief. Dit advies gaat dus níet over Europese wetgeving
Big Tech dominates the advertising market and lets everyone pay for that. Including traditional media outlets that do fact checks and do not produce fake news.
Cut out the middle men!
RT @wnip: .@Cannes_Lions sobering fact #1: Globally, advertisers will spend almost $800 billion on advertising in 2022. Five companies will receive over 400 bn of those ad dollars > Google, Meta, Amazon, Bytedance, and Alibaba. @GroupMWorldwide @AdContr…
The #1 social media platform among minors won't commit to stopping targetting them with ads.
Yet, responsible Commissioner Reynders closes his investigation into TikTok.
Why?
We need to protect our children @dreynders. TikTok won't do it voluntarily. https://www.beuc.eu/publications/investigation-tiktok-closed-important-questions-unresolved-consumers-left-dark/html
RT @PositiveMoneyEU: In 2008 credit ratings agencies fuelled the great financial crisis.👎
10 years later, the ECB still relies on them.😕
⚠️Do we want Fitch, S&P, Moody's to determine how climate-related risks will be evaluated tomorrow?😱
Great point by 🇳🇱MEP @paultang

RT @PositiveMoneyEU: On-point observation by @paultang:
What scope do you see for more targeted ECB policy-making like bringing the portfolio in line with the Paris Agreement or stimulating green collateral, wouldn't this help fighting inflation while keeping on track with finance transition?
Ahead of @EP_Economics hearing with @Lagarde this pm, I'm re-reading @Isabel_Schnabel on Climateflation, Fossilflation and Greenflation. Can we limit inflation yet maintain essential - but expensive - green investments?

@Esther_Voet @PvdA @cdavandaag @VVD @D66 Denk een stap verder. Dit is niet alleen in NLD aan de gang.
@DTBSD2 @itagain76 Arrogantie = dommigheid
Tijd voor Bertrand Russell, scepticus:
1) When the experts are agreed, the opposite opinion cannot be held to be certain.
2) When they are not agreed, no opinion can be regarded as certain by a non-expert
@Jesmelslien @hansvantelling Nou, het lijkt me juist dat wetenschappers met een pijnlijke conclusie zijn gekomen, niet?
@hansvantelling Zoals verwoordt in opeenvolgende IPCC rapporten. Die keurig nog waarschijnlijkheden aan uitspraken toekennen
De arrogantie is een aanval op de rede. Die ons terugbrengt naar een tijd van voor de wetenschap. Tel uit je winst.
Definitie: arrogantie is totaal als je het denkt beter te weten dan de consensus onder wetenschappers
RT @hansvantelling: De totale arrogantie om te denken dat wij als mensen een significante invloed kunnen hebben op ‘het klimaat’. Het klimaat was er altijd al. De aarde was ooit een bevroren ijsbal en ooit was het 24 graden op de Noordpool.
‘beperken opwarming aarde mislukt’ https://nos.nl/nieuwsuur/artikel/2433051-klimaatwetenschapp…
And it’s official: Hungary blocks minimum tax at EU level. By giving in to Poland's wish for money in exchange for the lifting of its veto, @vonderleyen has invited this onto herself.
The conclusion is clear, haggling with the Rule of Law never pays off.
🥳 Massive win for tax justice with biggest ever 🇫🇷 public interest fine to McDonalds of €1.1bn for tax avoidance.
Today it’s #McTax day!
Great work by @SEIU, @EFFAT_org, @EPSUnions and @WarOnWant for exposing this tax crime

Today at 12:45 the Commission will present it’s new Code of Practice on Disinformation.
We have seen how disinformation threatens democracy and polarises our public debate. We need to step up and fight against it. ASAP!

No! No! No! This is unacceptable
The ‘little dictator’ in Hungary copies the hostage diplomacy from Poland. The concessions of @vonderleyen to Poland were an open invitation. https://www.reuters.com/business/hungary-flags-objections-eu-implementation-global-minimum-tax-2022-06-14/
US treasury: we need ways to identify unhosted wallets. Couldn't agree more! @EU_Commission your move.. https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/jy0814
