This is what happens when you rely on American tech companies. Apple is pulling shit with Europe, the home of "civilisation", that feels like it's straight out of a stupid reality show over regulations regarding sideloading and privacy. And clowns like this will regurgigate the dumbest and the most worn-out libertarian shit in first tier media outlets.

Tbh I don't get the point behind GDPR. Is it genuinely meant to ensure privacy to some extent or is it just some form of protectionism against American tech companies?

I haven't read it yet, but isn't this the central problem behind Yanis Varoufakis's book Technofeudalism?

Maybe. I haven't read that book either.
