That is insufficient. You can still infer identities through metadata and behavioural analysis. For instance purchase history and geolocation is often enough to identify some individuals.

Why is delete=1 a best practice? There are competing concerns here. The government has now decided for everyone. Agree or disagree it is not worth implyng immorality where no immoral intent is present.

It is the same thing that allowed someone to decide to grow high priced export crops instead of feeding their neighbours. And the same thing that allows them to trade their crops for money. The country of Ethiopia is not one collective orga

You aren’t providing the service across the border. The service is in your own country. The buyer is using telecommunications to make an order across the border. The buyer is the one responsible for knowing their own local laws and should b

I am happy the author is fighting the power. However since most of us live in society we generally would prefer less chaos. The difference between investment to collect data and investment to protect dat is there is no ROI for compliance (i

When the business is being conducted outside the EU but the EU is enforcing GDPR, it is a problem. The GDPR is specifically written for extrajurisdictional enforcement which is a big change in the world of laws. I am just saying that the EU

Yes. I do expect that. It is a reasonable expectation that the laws are clearly understandable by those subject to the laws. Just as companies need to be specific about how they use data now the legal-judicial system needs to be specific ab

When an EU business buys a service from an American operating in America from their website hosted in America how is this materially different than when a Saudi Arabian citizen visits New York and buys alcohol? Why would Saudi law apply in

Well, the difference is that theft is a natural law. We are born with an instinct it is wrong. Having a data processing officer in the EU for some definition of significant business is not a natural law and requires careful parsing of the l

You need to travel to the US. They are applying laws domestically. The US is quite opposed to extrajurisdictional law enforcement which is why they don’t sign onto things like the International Criminal Court.

The word choice of citizen vs resident is a red herring. The issue is the extrajurisdictional reach of the law. An EU resident visiting" your business which is hosted and operated in the United States, is the same as a Saudi Arabian co

That is not true. You do not need to comply with any country’s laws except the one you reside in, except for treaties by your home country that say otherwise or your desire to travel abroad. Just think of what China would do to the Internet

No. It is quite definitely not true that you must comply with the laws of countries you are not in. The EU is primarily leveraging the fact that most everyone wants to travel to the EU eventually. While you in your home country you have no

Yes. You can sell alcohol to Saudi Arabians from Canada. You cannot ship to Saudi Arabia. The buyer may pick up in another location where alcohol is legal including in person in Canada. What they do with the alcohol once in their possession

Legitimate interests is not defined. So good luck with that. Also you are responsible for downstream guarantees of legitimate interest. He is right that open P2P protocols like XMPP, such as NNTP, IRC, bitcoin, ethereum, etc are not handled

You still have data hygiene policies to enact which are confusingly legislated. Also legitimate interest is a loophole created to appease some lobbyists but the legislators declined to make clear anywhere because they don’t give a shit abou

33 years ago... We used to use cash receipts from our convenience store to resupply at the cash and carry. It wasn’t uncommon. I saw transactions in high figures often from my fellow customers. Not sure how common it is now.
