@noybeu Thank you! They are way to passive (sadfully) on other topic to.

Dear @noybeu: Could you please explain to your "NAL" (not a lawyer) audience, why #Hamburg data protection authority and not e.g. #Berlin or #Dublin? Thank you!

@debacle Hi, the data subject/complainant is located in Hamburg, which is why the complaint was filed there.

@noybeu

For the half of a second, I though it was a pun on #Hamburg senator for the interior and sports, #AndyGrote. "Andy, Du bist so 1 #PimEyes".
