I wouldn't be so certain about that. Before now, most people were pretty certain that an accept/decline warning was enough and that they had the right to refuse service to people who did not click OK on the warning.
- gnud 8y agoIf anyone believed that, they did not research more than 10 minutes. This comes up in _every_ discussion about GDPR. I honestly worry - are we as developers just extra stupid, or are other occupations (electricians, ship captains, architects) equally lax when it comes to reading and following regulations?
- kd5bjo 8y agoThose other occupations have been regulated for a long time, so the training and verification practices have had time to mature. This is still the early days of software development regulation, so there's not much history or tradition to fall back on -- I'm pretty sure that all the other industries had similar problems when their first regulations were enacted.
