A trend I've noticed from lurking and browsing these comments: commenters who have experience taking risk and operating under existential conditions in stressful, budget constrained companies (AKA, startup founders) tend to be critical of the GDPR.
Commenters who work as 9-5 employees or have never started a company (or at least, don't mention as having done so in their profiles) tend to be more supportive of the GDPR.
Funny how that works..
- casefields 8y agoIt's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission. It's the Facebook Way™ and the dream for all those soon to be failed startups. Funny how that works...
- scarlac 8y agoA little nuance to your stats: I've spend the majority of my career in startups, mostly my own, many times struggling to survive. Never worked in a comfy big corp. I currently work in a startup and my hours are far from 9-5. I support GDPR. It's the first reasonable solution to privacy I've seen. And I hated the cookie alerts. The transition is tough and we're fighting to figure it out at the moment. But the basic principles in GDPR are solid.
