I believe a major factor in this was a ruling by the Hoge Raad that a "free" phone with a contract is unlawful and is actually a loan. Carriers now have to list the price for the phone and for the service separately, so it's a lot more clear what the costs of the phone are.

Also, a "free" phone is now registered as a loan with monthly recurring costs, which impacts for example the maximum mortgage you can get on a home.

If you lay in the bed, depending on if you are lying on your back or stomach, left and right still change.

Ususally a bed is positioned with the head against a wall, so if you are facing the bed from the foot end, left and right are always the same. So I vote left/right is as seen from the foot end of the bed.

So wird es in die Niederlanden auch gemacht.

Immerhin gibt es auch hier genug Leute die aus dem Kreisverkehr raus fahren ohne zu blinken...

That is not what GDPR is about.

I hope leap days are handled a bit more sophisticated!

For me it often covers important elements of the site that way. Especially these annoying "use our app" overlays, and then the "continue using website" button is hidden behind the address bar with jo way to scroll it into view. So no way to use the website :(

I'm glad I wasn't the only one that wanted to work on a garbage truck, for the exact same reason!

In the Netherlands, they solved this by adding a randomly generated transaction reference to the payment. This will appear on your bank / credit card statement. To view details for the transaction (time and location of entry/exit), you have to enter the paid amount and reference.

However, this will only give you info for a single transaction. If you want to see an overview of all your transactions, you need to create an account in their app. After linking your card to your account, again using the reference and amount for a transaction, you can view your travel history.
