Oh I LOVE this, we can't have enough of these privacy-focused non-profits making tech companies' lives difficult. They have such a strong argument here, too. I can imagine that whoever came up with this is very pleased with theirselves, and rightfully so.

It’s a very European concept, that making life difficult is a worthy pursuit. LinkedIn sucks, and I hate this feature. But that’s why I hardly use it and don’t pay them any money.

Europeans hate making money and hate anyone who makes money. The preferred solution is putting a torch to the person or whatever they built up. Preferably with a nonprofit and shit like GDPR. Because obviously destroying something means you've put one over someone and are therefore superior to them. Bunch of bullies.

Edit: I'm European, I'm allowed to complain about the mentality I grew up in.
