- junto 1y agoNo, the laws that ensures that private individuals have the power to know what is stored about them, change incorrect data, and have it deleted unless legally necessary to hold it - all in a timely manner and financially penalize companies that do not.

- cenamus 1y agoThat's not the GDPR.
- anonymousab 1y agoThat is malicious compliance with the law, and more or less indicative of a failure of enforcement against offenders.

- sensanaty 1y agoNo, GDPR is the law that allowed me to successfully request the deletion of everything companies like Meta have ever harvested on me without my consent and for them to permanently delete it. Fun fact, GitHub doesn't have cookie banners. It's almost like it's possible to run a huge site without being a parasite and harvesting every iota of data of your site's visitors!
