I disagree that it is unpredictable. It is predictably a bit more pro-citizen/consumer than the USA. That should not be surprising to anyone at this point.
- clnq 4y agoIt's predictable. General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) was signed into law in mid-2016 and came into effect in mid-2018. That is two years to designate data controllers, processors, and a data protection officer, to ask for the customer's permission to collect personally identifiable data and implement secure storage. I was working on a SaaS where personal data was the main kind of data we stored. It took two sprints and two audits to achieve GDPR compliance. It is now 2023, and Meta is still not compliant. No one can explain this away with "unpredictable".
