It is a problem with under-specification, because GDPR is supposed to be just a guiding framework and each government should implement its own compatible laws.

I also was afraid the Romanian government (and other autocratic governments) will do a poor job translating the GDPR into national law.
- icebraining 8y agoThat's not true; the GDPR is not a Directive, but a Regulation, meaning the actual text applies directly, it's not transposed by the national legislators. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulation_(European_Union) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulation_(European_Union)
- mtarnovan 8y agoThat's correct, however the GDPR contains some clauses allowing each state to pass national laws to supplement it, and I expect most states will.
