Why do Europeans think that they own the data that someone collects about them? That's like saying if you write a biography on someone, that the subject would automatically have copyright.

You're proven wrong.

Abolish copyright laws and all freedom of information issues are fixed, including that one.

>That's like saying if you write a biography on someone, that the subject would automatically have copyright.
That is how it works de facto. There‘s no automatic copyright, but in practice you can be sued for slander/libel/defamation/invasion of privacy and a number of other things, so unauthorized biographies are a rather risky business.

Because intellectual property is retarded in principle, but economically desirable, which leads to inane and counterintuitive policies.

It's not that they think they own the data collected about them, it's that the US and China are dominating that sector of the economy and they're willing to say anything to fine these foreign companies.

>Why do Europeans think that they own the data that someone collects about them?
They don't. They think that the way they obtained the data is illegal.

European here.

1. I do not consent to any data collection of me.
2. I do not trust anyone with my data.
3. I do not believe it is used for good.
4. I do not believe it is safe.
5. It gives others power over me I dont want them to have.
6. The data collectors are hypocrits, liars, profiteurs, perverts, and evil. May God smite them down, and burn their souls in heaven forever amen.

Too bad. I'm collecting data on you as we speak. What are you going to do about it?

1. Then why do you give your data to people?
2. Then why do you give your data to people?
3. It is not.
4. It is not.
5. Then why do you give your data to people?
6. He won't.

Christ it's like some part of you deep beneath the retardation understands there's a difference between these two concepts, but is too starved and weak to keep you from posting this garbage thread.

Europeans have more rights than Americans. Americans have more absolute rights than Europeans.

The idea about what you mentioned is quite simple. Everyone has the right to privacy, so you can't just process information about other people without having a good reason for it. And often you also need permission of that person to process information about that person. And apparently, that person can now also withdraw that permission.

A normalfag's perspective
1, 2. They collect data because they force data collection on me. It is not feasible for me as a normalfag to stop their data collection via technical means. Moreover, I should not have to go to great lengths to stop them. Therefore, I want laws that prevent those people from collecting data in a manner I do not agree with in the first place.
I was forced to consent or not use their service. It is technically possible to use their service without data collection. If laws are put into place here, I will be able to enjoy their service without risking my privacy.

Nice try FBI man im onto you shill trying to convince Jow Forums that data collection is cool so you can fuck everyone in the ass
