The EU commission's own websites were not GDPR compliant for quite a long time after GDPR took effect. They still eventually became compliant, but it wasn't there from day 1, which is what you would expect from the body that made the regulation.
Part of the reason why is that the commission doesn't have to follow GDPR (rules for thee).
- lm28469 7y agoAh right, let's cancel everything then... This is buzzfeed level of argumentation. What do you care about ? The official GDPR website developers being too lazy to update their own website or Facebook, Google & co. willingly juicing every single drop of your privacy ?
- big_chungus 7y agoNormally I would dismiss this as trivial, but the GDPR was intended to make a point. Both as a bit of a slap to American tech companies, and to claim that, "We in EUrope take privacy seriously!" If you are going out of your way not just to pass a law but to vocally chastise companies, it is reasonable to expect you have gotten your own house in order first.
