Theres no such thing as -normal in Europe-. Europe is not monolithic, it has dozens of different countries and cultures. For instance, here in Portugal it would be highly illegal to ask for someone's religion in a job application. It would be equally illegal to ask for someone's race/ethnicity. Thats despite the fact that, if Im not mistaken, thats common to ask in the USA, I know that at least in the census its something thats asked which, again, its not done here. Going more into the aspect of rarely existing a standard for anythimg across the multiple European countries, some countries ban fascits parties but accept communists while others do the opposite. Some ban both, others ban neither. Some countries have a USA style -credit score- system for giving out loans. Its a system that distrusts the person until proven otherwise. That would be against the constitution here in Portugal. Instead, people have to ve assumed as trustworthy unless proven otherwise. The ability to get a loan cannot depend on past loans and repayments.
Regarding religion, here in Portugal, it would be the employee, after being hired, that would have the right to invoke its religion in order to have different rest days or have a break at a specific time of the day in order to attend to some religious obligation like praying.

I don't like olives.
Therefore, when I order a pizza, I choose one that has no olives on it or -build my own-. I do not order a pizza that has olives on it, and then pick them off when it's delivered and just before I eat it.
By the same logic, Google adds its own closed source and proprietary spyware crap onto an AOSP (Android Open Source Project) ROM and then calls it -Google Android- before it makes its way onto millions of phones. So now they are -picking the olives off- by adding privacy protection that you only need because they put their crappy apps onto the phone in the first place.
Hence the solution is simple - -don't have the olives in the first place- and install an AOSP ROM onto your phone. Then you don't need to worry about Google fixing a problem that they caused in the first place.

I installed Blokada to reduce the network spam from my phone. I've blocked 95% of all TikTok requests and the app still works fine. which suggests that it is doing a -lot- of stuff in the background that is superfluous to the user experience.
You had a good rant in the middle of this report that had me nodding along in a -hell yeah! - way.
The SMS banking thing: I asked my bank if I could use RFC6238 TOTP 2FA rather than SMS, and they told me that they -had- to use SMS because it was being globally mandated by the USA banking system. [Further equating your phone to your identity; which is as bad as people trying to solve all of the Internet problems with, -just stick it in the DNS. -]

homless people also have increased motive to protect their identity or not want to disclose certain things to the police so there really is no -however- - i know thats what youre saying, but thats like saying -i understand why police want to carry AR-15s because they may want to shoot someone at some point- - just because it may be useful to their end goals, or some piece of technology may be desirable to the police, doesn't mean they have any business having it.

Hiya Nathan, great vid and thankyou for voicing your thoughts on the mental help topic. If having depression wasn't bad enough now you have to worry about your data while in the worst position. Last thing I want is an AI trying to determine if I'm depressed, how would you even quantify that! Suddenly you're in a -health centre- because an AI says you're at risk. scary!

I feel like this whole -US based apps- and -ties to the Chinese government- is in danger of sliding into 'yellow peril territory. I appreciate that Techlore is just reading from a news article but I feel like we as a community could do better at criticising Chinese apps for actual privacy problems not vague insinuations about them being Chinese.
Just some thoughts.

Thanks so much. And to answer you, NO its not normal to sort job applicants by their religious convictions. This is most likely being swept under the rug because i haven't seen it mentioned anywhere by European media. this is horrible

I installed tiktok once on my android. It immediately knew what country I was in even though my app store was set to another country, it did not have location permissions, and I had my vpn to the US on the entire time

Swissport do plane food which is why they might have a religion column to identify if more halal or kosher meals are needed though I don't know why they wouldn't just have special food column.

The muslm/non-muslim thing may be to do with the facilities Swissport run in the Middle East. Some countries prefer/require muslims for particular sites or roles.
