Personally I find this quite an important issue. Whether you don't care is your own choice, but not all us are happy to live in a panopticon.

And the EU is in fact mainly a trade body, setting standards and categorisations, so there are likely some rules on toilets already in EU acquis on health and safety at the workplace, etc. I doubt they oblige a specific position though, you can rest in peace on the piece

I care, but they spend a lifetime fining citizens and companies and later at the same time they tell you that with digital euro, anonimity... no. Want to make physical money disappear over time, restrict to 1000 euros cash transactions... (Spain case) They are so special. I thought common human beings work for public institutions also so they should be audited by the same rules.

Or for example they prepare a law to be able to get journalist sources (which is even illegal in my constitution!).

I do not think it is a fair position. They are increasingly telling us: you do all this and we... we have superpowers we do not need to do it.

I do not agree with that vision.
