GDPR is privacy theater

[SyrupThinker]

At the very least it did result in plenty of services that previously didn't allow one to delete accounts to add that option. For other cases writing a strongly worded email did the trick, unfortunate that Nikola did not have as much success with it.

Somewhat, but not entirely. For smaller players it's a hassle/PITA but it does enforce some checks and balances on the larger players.

thanks for the insight, keyboard warrior

only because it isnt enforced.

if fines were levied and actually collected, itd be a pretty robust regulation for privacy. theres other issues with it, but nothing that requires gdpr to be wiped out -- just modified (and clarified) a bit.
