Can you support your allegations with evidence?
The EU already has a lot of regulations in place that particularly hurt EU companies. GDPR for example is good for citizens but requires extra effort by companies. Small US companies can ignore it until they are big enough to expand into the EU market but small EU companies need to follow the law from the start.
- tuxie_ 4y agoI would like to point out that you request evidence and immediately proceed to make your own claims with no evidence.
- saiya-jin 4y agoHe just written an example - all EU companies need to follow GDPR from day 1 if they also operate here. Do you need a list of few thousand companies to consider it good enough example? Another example - roaming charges dropped, this directly hurt all telcos big time.
- jon-wood 4y agoGDPR is a set of regulations which are far easier to follow from the start than attempt to deal with after being in business for 20 years without having to consider. The core of complying with GDPR are that you can provide a customer with a view of what data you hold on them, that you can delete it on request, that that data is accurate (and resolve if not), and if you’re doing anything non-obvious with it then you ask permission. Designing for all of that from the start is relatively simple, particularly if you don’t go and integrate with every analytics/tracking SaaS under the sun.
- inexcf 4y agoLuckily for the EU not a single company was located in the EU prior to GDPR. I mean nothing stops even small US companies from planning for GDPR if they want to expand to Europe. There's no advantage for European companies here.
- iamacyborg 4y ago> small EU companies need to follow the law from the start. It’s much easier starting everything with the law in mind than it is trying to retroactively apply it.
