"They intended to seize computers with customer data.
In line with our policies such customer data did not exist"
But please tell me again how hard it is to comply with the GDPR
- 3np 4y agoMullvad is obviously running an illegal fly-by-night operation by not plastering their site in dark-pattern overlay banners. /s
- moffkalast 4y agoMullvad is 4 parallel universes ahead of NOA. This is the best kind of advertisement they could've ever gotten.
- unixgoddess 4y agothe problem is, if this starts to become common, countries will move to make it illegal not to store data...
- actionfromafar 4y agoAt least that forces legislators to be overt.
- unixgoddess 4y agounfortunately that's useless if you can't do anything about it... just think about the recent unfruitful millions-strong street protests in france, how powerless we are even in self-proclaimed democracies.
- actionfromafar 4y agoEven then, it's better to know you are being short-changed. Alas, France's problem is an old one, the executive has too much power. It was maybe good for people like de Gaulle, but most leaders can't burden the responsibility properly.
- em-bee 4y agodata retention laws have already been proposed, if not even enacted in some EU countries.
- moffkalast 4y agoWould be a shame if those hard drives failed accidentally on a regular basis. In unrelated news, Seagate stock rises to record high...
- filleokus 4y ago> But please tell me again how hard it is to comply with the GDPR I like Mullvad (and been a paying customer on-and-off for years), but perhaps it's easier to comply with GDPR when your whole business is essentially not storing data? Even if you are the most privacy conscious company ever, there is probably legitimate need storing more data than Mullvad in almost any other B2C scenario. (Although it would be exciting buying e.g a TV online by sending cash in an envelope and writing the shipping address inside, the novelty probably wears of once the postal service looses your package and you can't do anything about it. Or when you loose your paper note with the ASCII armored PGP proof-of-purchase and you can't do a warranty claim)
