> You aren’t annoyed by cookie/consent screens.

I am. I'd rather they were not there, such that I could get on with my reading / browsing without having to deal with the clutter. (Which is why I use Consent-O-Matic https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/consent-o-matic/ as well as tools to mitigate the impact of cookies).

Same with flashing adverts, or ads which clutter up the page.

I *also* dislike the surveillance capitalism, but the interruptions are, in themselves, unwelcome.

The ICO has fined Join the Triboo Limited £130,000 for sending 107 million marketing emails without valid consent, in breach of the Privacy and Electronic Comms Regs.

The emails were sent to c400,000 individuals, meaning each recipient received an average of 244 separate emails during a one year period.

Interestingly, the ICO received zero complaints about the company in this time.

"The ICO and breach reporting under Reg 5A PECR: take two"

A new blogpost, on a new announcement by the ICO, on personal data breach reporting under PECR.

This one is vast improvement, albeit with a couple of unanswered questions.

A *very* quick blogpost about today's announcement from the ICO that it has "decided to stop enforcing personal data breach reports made under Regulation 5A [PECR]".

Very muddy waters.
