I'm looking for a flat in #Hamburg, Germany (tips welcome), and wondering yet again how #SCHUFA is not illegal.
It's a company whose business model is to collect data on everyone and pretend to be able to predict their ability to pay rent or a mobile contract. Mundane shit like changing your bank account gives you a negative score.
The whole business model should be illegal. A person's right to privacy should be more important than a slightly higher business risk.
