Agree! Both reports are a pretty good and reflect the status quo in the industry. There is an overcollection and oversharing of data without proper consent and that has to stop.

Having said that the report paints a pretty dark and one-sided picture. Let's see how far the authorities will follow their argumentation / conclusion.

(full disclosure: I work in that industry.)
