> I don't understand your overall point about "data" though.

Data about you is your data. The GDPR defines it as such. As long as data can be traced back to you, even through pseudonymization, it remains your data. This includes anything from IP logs to what you did in the app. If it's tracked, that generates data, the data is tied to you, so it's your data. Given that the app invites you to upload pictures, which themselves could be other people's data, it's very relevant to know who is storing, transferring and processing it and for what purposes.

> Germany is definitely incredibly pro copyright though so that probably plays a role.

Sure, to some degree. I'd also like to believe that we have a heightened cultural awareness of the dangers of governments and corporations having access to personal information when things go south. The biggest civil control mechanism of the East German government was what at the time would have been considered an excessive amount of data collection about anyone even remotely suspicious of being critical of the state (and anyone affiliated with them). And prior to that the NSDAP used intricate record keeping to identify "Jews" and suspected enemies of the state. It doesn't matter if it's a corporation that has the data or the government because fascism doesn't make this distinction. So the only way to protect data is to have full transparency over who has it and why.
