- xxs 3y agoit won't stand in regards to GDPR. GDPR consent has to be freely given (and taken at any time), can't use legal lingo either.
- bryanrasmussen 3y agolegal consent in GDPR needs to be understandable, can not be hidden in any way, and easy to remove. The common lawyer's hack of hiding it in a big long unreadable contract won't cut it, and should lead to fines. Everybody talks crap about the GDPR, but as someone who, while not a lawyer, has worked on technical laws and standardization, I gotta say they really did a great job on not letting any companies have an easy out.
