The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

Coming into force on 25 May 2018, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) harmonises data privacy laws across Europe. It protects Europeans, gives them control over their personal data and reshapes the way organisations approach data privacy.

An understated achievement. Hopefully in the long run this will also help preserve European standards of democracy.

If the EU really wanted to give us privacy, they would provide end-to-end encrypted internet... Instead, we get a popup on every website "we are getting your data, please consent".

Don't you think your citizens deserve more than a 50 second video about the details of this new law? This law will cause mass censorship in Europe and will take the internet out of the hands of individuals and put it in the hands of giant tech companies. And it will cause internet users all over the world to be able to only see the official approved propaganda from Europe. Please vote it down.

They just breached my security and someone/ organization has made it impossible to add content on youtube as to copy and paste articles News, music .. no matter what and all the content I post has been approved by Youtube as to the original poster. I repost the links and now I'm being silenced for adding someone else's link as a response to a comment as to an explanation as to why people / YouTubers were protesting several years ago about youtube changing formats ...That was all I was trying to illustrate. Is this fair play that they have blocked me from coppy and share already approved content on Youtube? .. no certainly not ...How can I ever agree being declared dead and silenced just by sharing a video that I did not create! ...Madness, and if these people / megalomaniacs are being supported to silence every opposition or even supporters, all is going to HELL and that means EVERYONE on all media platforms ... Youtube thrives, and other globalists platforms on information and different opinions .ALL ism's are evil or can be what ever the Is'm. At the moment the credo Google don't be evil has been nothing more than pulling the wool over your eyes ... The owners of youtube would not have censured me if they were not evil and allowed free speech and criticism. I'm not their slave but enslaved in their system that's all ...they don't give you an option !
