this is the same as before GDPR, this seems like the judge didn't know what the purpose of GDPR was?? or maybe Austria's legislative implementation of GDPR really does allow this much latitude.
- tom_mellior 6y agoGDPR is a regulation (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulation_(European_Union) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulation_(European_Union) ), which means that it applies directly. The ruling also refers to various sections of GDPR directly. There is no local legislative implementation of regulations; you are thinking of directives (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directive_(European_Union) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directive_(European_Union) ), of which GDPR is not one.
- vmception 6y agoOkay. Is there anything rational about what this judge in Vienna did?
- the_mitsuhiko 6y agoThe judge originally even didn’t want to rule on the case. It looks very much they wanted the case to go to a different court and have nothing to do with it.
