I'd like to sign this and hammer it down for every software company that has customers in more than one country.
All this ridiculous discussions about "why should we abide by EU law just because we do business with EU citizens" ... because we are not in a Cyberpunk world, you are not some extra-legal entity which makes their own laws. At least, Australia does something to remind the companies of that. Good for them.
- tutts 9y agoBusinesses don't have to abide by EU law when doing business with EU citizens, but when doing business in the EU. It's a small, but sometimes meaningful, distinction.
- shakna 9y agoCheck the GDPR. The EU requires certains things of businesses not in the EU, who interact with EU citizens.
- danieltillett 9y agoEven worse it is EU residents and who may or may not be in the EU when they interact with you.
