I'm afraid I don't follow; how does GDPR enter into it? Wouldn't GDPR protections only apply to European customers?

- jopsen 8y agoDo you honestly think Mozilla is going to deliberately treat Americans worse than Europeans? :)
- yjftsjthsd-h 8y agoSure. All they have to do is tell themselves that this data is totally being used for a good purpose and Europe is just being over regulatory.
- arghwhat 8y agoYou'll never guess where I'm writing from. But, once you've gone through the pain of following GDPR, there's a chance you'll treat everyone the same. The GDPR means that they can't just hoard whatever data there is, keep it forever and do whatever they want with it. The user needs to agree to how the data will be processed, there is a default expiry of 5 years (IIRC), and you can always just ask to retrieve all data and/or have it all deleted, with absurd fines for non-compliance. So, you don't have to trust the next CEO. Making it so that Mozilla never knew you existed is a simple GDPR request away.
