Laughable, how they put it.

data protection agencies in 11 European countries – and those agencies, led by Ireland, telling the Facebook giant to scrap the slurp.

They are making such a pathetic show about their own decision to observe the law.

And this is a law that is clearly and openly readable. You don't need legal experts to understand the basics, and you don't need any agencies telling you that you must observe it.

They are constantly giving the impression as if they were a gang of professional outlaws and only if somebody catches them redhanded, then they are able make a decision - one decision for one case, exceptipnally - to behave properly.
