@EUCommission Appreciate what you have achieved so far, but as a living democratic collective, there is still much to do.
#AgeVerification being pushed as yet (yet!) another form of #ChatControl, by industry #lobbyists and willing #conservatives. Someone here in the comments already named ultra fascist #tool #Palantir. The still cozy relationships with oppressive #GenocidalRegimes like the #USA and belligerent #Israel who can do no wrong.Major steps to improve our lives and not those of #BigTech, industry conglomerates, #evil states and political factions are necessary and never ending.

Hi @The_Universality! The rights, principles and safeguards that define EU data protection are not in question. What we are addressing in our Digital Omnibus are calls for targeted amendments to clarify, simplify and harmonise certain aspects of the GDPR. There is no move to weaken user rights. Access, correction and erasure remain at the centre of our data protection approach. We are simplifying rules, not limiting people’s control over their data.
@EUCommission @The_Universality simplifyed for who? For Companys to exploit our data even more simply? For simpler surveillance capitalism?

Here in the US, everyone has the right to withhold their information, although in a very few cases they might need a lawyer. Many people chose to use the phrase 'I have nothing to hide' that have since learned better ... sometimes at great expense.

Exactly, please look into commercial surveillance, our rights are broken regularly by big corporations. -

The stop diluting the GDPR!But companies...
Yes exactly!
CEOs don't elect you, EU citizens do.
If you touch the GDPR, that means that you are elected by CEOs #corruption -

@EUCommission Small question, related to GDPR. If I request retrieval and deletion of my data from a service, and they decide to comply by simply deleting my data without offering me an option to retrieve, is there a legal recourse for me to hold them responsible for deleting it?

Would be nice if the EU commission acted like it. Meaning:
- ditching #chatcontrol for good, along with all other ways of mass surveillance, like (european versions of) #Palantir.
- actually enforcing fines against #BigTech instead of halting it like von der Leyen did with #Google
- not selling our data to usa by #omnibus
- list goes on -

@EUCommission If my data is truly in my possession, why even bother with chat control? Enough distractions, we Europeans lost trust with the European Commission after chat control, all of this are just LIES

Know your rights: https://link.europa.eu/gKNcKj@EUCommission My country APD is stuck in a nap for the last decade, instead of applying this law. Maybe you can do something about it ?

@EUCommission problem is the lack of #Enforcement and subsequent #Enshittification which made #GDPR a #downgrade compared to #BDSG which mandated "only absolutely necessary" data collection as in "legally and/or technically necessary to fulfill essential functionaltiy"…

@EUCommission that all sounds great. What regulations are there in the european union that will reduce or restrict what data are made available at the user machine?
All I see here, across all given points, is an assumption that data is made available. Are there no settings on the user machine which can be mandated to reduce user data exposure from the source?
Where is the EU at on that?

So yeah, @EUCommission, I would really like to trust you, but I see more done that damages this trust.

@EUCommission @The_Universality
The Digital Omnibus is hollowing out the GDPR: https://noyb.eu/sites/default/files/2025-12/noyb%20Digital%20Omnibus%20Report%20V1.pdf
In particular, it reduces protection of personal data by redefining what personal data is.
The GDPR is a really good law that the EU can be very proud of. The proposed changes only water it down and reduce the protection of citizens.

That's nice, but the probability that meta, google, et al actually stop collecting and actually delete anyone's data is zero.
