It's a problem for us when it comes to the GDPR and rights to be forgotten; companies will say they store your data carefully, will say they have shown you everything they have, will say they delete it, but "the company" in aggregate has no idea there's a thousand SharePoint sites and ex-employees mailboxes and filestores, and copies of old filservers from before a migration, and test databases containing copies of real data from a half-abandoned project where new management fired the contractors and then never got around to hiring new ones.
- otterley 2y agoThe right to be forgotten was never a practically enforceable right to begin with. It’s a right that burdens others with perpetual effort and cost, unlike most rights, which only require others not to do things. I’m not sure why Europeans are so obsessed with it.
