This is such a laughable statement that’s dripping in American corporatism. You know full well the GDPRs main purpose is privacy protection and the main “everyone else” that is being restricted is the data glutton American tech companies.
- seydor 4y agoI m an EU citizen and gdpr does not protect me from arbitrary police searches etc. It merely legitimizes them by giving a 'faux legal framework' around them
