If you do have to be a citizen, I wonder what happens if someone moves to the EU, and becomes a citizen. Does it only apply to data since they became a citizen, or retroactively to all data?
Also, how could facebook verify that you're a citizen or not, couldn't you just say you were always a citizen, just on a greencard in the US for a few years?
Would it be illegal to show facebook a fake id?
Just idle curiosity.
- dannyw 9y agoData doesn’t have rights; you as a human (citizen or resident of EU) have rights on your data. So it’s retroactive.
- JumpCrisscross 9y ago> Would it be illegal to show facebook a fake id? Almost certainly. That's lying for personal gain, i.e. fraud. Disclaimer: I am not a lawyer. This is not legal advice. Don't do fraud.
- jacquesm 9y ago> Would it be illegal to show facebook a fake id? Facebook doesn't have much to do with that, the creation or possession of a fake ID can already get you in trouble even if you never use it at all. This is highly dependent on where you live, better check your local laws.
- fasteddie 9y agoSo this covers the "right to be forgotten" part of GDPR. However, there are plenty of other parts -- like not using tracking cookies til you explicitly give permission, that most sites will likely implement just with geoip targeting.
- ljk 9y agoi would guess they would do whatever the minimum is to stay "legal" and maximize profit... er i mean, "connecting people"
