In some of the music communities I’m in the content creators are already telling their userbase to go follow them on threads. They’re all talking about some kind of beef between Elon and Mark and the possibility of a boxing match… Mark was right to call the people he’s leaching off of fucking idiots.

    That’s funny! Imagine being called “you data removed” hahaha! In all seriousness, though, if such a law existed and depending on the payment requirements, there might not be many data removed opportunities. Depending on the legislation, it could discourage entities from tracking, storing, mining, and selling people’s data. It would require entities to keep track. With people using online services in the millions, that’s some serious accounting and legal representation. It might even cost more money to prove compliance to governments than the payments to the “data removed” would. Then, of course, there would be the fines to pay for non-compliance, and the lawsuits. That’s why this law I dream of will never happen. Depending on the law and its implementation it could cripple online industry and make companies like Meta totally non-existent.
