Will this affect the global internet, or will big sites simply make a reduced "european version" where some filtered content isn't shown in the EU but is shown in North America?
- dr_teh 8y agoThe European version will be the same thing when I try to go on a non-gdpr US site, a big banner that tells me to *$#^ off.
- candiodari 8y agoThe EU was furious when the large internet firms chose to have a reduced EU version and informed their customers the EU had forced them to remove stuff. So they will do their very best to make it affect the global internet. Given that all major powers want that, it'll happen. Maybe not right now, but it's coming. It would have happened a long time ago if it wasn't for the stroke of luck that these companies are in the US and the US government is protecting them (for now succesfully).
