A lot of these regulations are at democracies because of citizens demanding data protections. I founded the company InCountry that's mentioned in the article. What you're seeing here is that countries are starting to regulate the Internet like they regulate everything else. McDonald's has to comply with a ton of regulations on food, employees, tax, etc. everywhere they are. But for the longest time, not how they treated consumer data.
- andykk 7y agoWho will be the advocate for the consumer? The government wants access. Companies want to monetize and viralize. Who will speak and crawl in the dark recesses of power for the people?
- ymolodtsov 7y agoNot sure I saw a single rally in Europe where people demanded their data should be kept in the EU. Not sure I saw a single rally in Australia/UK where people were saying “yeah, block that porn for us”.
- squiggleblaz 7y agoI never heard of a rally demanding fines for people who run read lights, either.
