Anybody else getting these google privacy pop-ups and emails?
_____From 31 March 2020, Google Services in the UK will be provided by Google LLC.
_____Reading into it, all the privacy protections provided by the EU including GDPR will cease to have jurisdiction in the UK. And we will instead go back to US-style deregulation.
All the data they hold on you will be transferred to US servers from the current Irish ones on this date. Giving who knows who, full access to it.
A new era of digital cuntery is upon us. I for one can't wait for the first client request to spam a scraped database.
Oh, and the conversation I'll have with my Brexit voting inlaws as to why they're getting all these horrible emails, junk mail and phone calls from scammers.
Which reminds me. Anybody know how I can get hold of a Daily Mail database. I have an idea.
Muhahahah.
- Non compliance with GDPR is reason enough for Brexit. You still don't realize how privileged you are to not have to accept cookies for every site you visit.deadsperm
- Which is to say - it'll go back to how it was pre-GDPR and how it is for the rest of the world. It's also likely a temporary ass-covering measureNairn
- Cookie acceptance in return for protection and recall is a very tiny price I'm happy to pay.monoboy
- Without it, we will have no jurisdiction and absolutely no say over how it's handled.monoboy

I know. It's too late now.deadsperm - The implications are high. I'm sure Insurance companies would love more of your FitBit and Facebook data with no strings.monoboy
- I find it funny/sad that some only now realize the amount of "small" things that were overlooked when making the choice.deadsperm
- In conversations with your folk I realized how little some of them know of how things actually work.deadsperm
- Totally. I had particularly tough convo with an aunt years ago who was aghast at the amount of 'filthy' spam emails she was getting.monoboy
