And US government is actually working on it too [1]

- toast_coder 8y agoIts a funny reference to bring up California. So many responses to GDPR have been a blanket refusal and cutting EU users off from a nontrivial amount of content on the internet. As a US citizen, I already know that everything on earth causes cancer to the citizens of CA, but its interesting how many product commercials where you see the products are not available in CA. Frankley, I think alot of data privacy crusaders are going to be even more surprised by how easy it is for ditigal product offerings to cut out users by geolocation. If CA wants fo go down the road of making websites display notifications about this cancer causing data collection, well, I feel like I could make my living just by selling my digital products in Texas. At some point the regulation makes the business unprofitable.
