The new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (EU) 2016/679 needs to be implemented.

Most of these I just ignore because it means they will stop sending me stuff I don't want.
The new laws don't just apply to the internet. We visited out dentist a couple of weeks ago and had to fill in a new medical history form. On the back were various boxes you could tick or not to allow them to use this information for various purposes.
Hopefully this will stop shops from asking for your post code and email address when you pay.
Cheers

A new European regulation is just now going into effect. This is targeting big data like Google/facebook, etc. Many large companies are just doing it across the board instead of just in europe.kambo said:

The idea was to target the big data companies. But it puts a huge burdon on businesses of every size and even on non-businesses, like homeowners renting out a small appartment.
It's ironic considering the massive privacy problems not addressed at all by the regulation, like government issued surveillance...

I have long argued for charging email postage fees... even 1/100 of a cent would put spammers out of business

I had Neil Young follow me the other day on twitter. After which, he asked me if he could entrust me with a special suitcase that had two million six hundred thousand dollars in it; a special mission that he needed to entrust to one of his closest fans, as he didn't want his management knowing about it.
I always knew Neil was a crook... ;D

Thats pretty hilarious & but even more so pretty irritating that the BankGiro Loterij (one of our National Nuisances ) spams across the Atlantic as well.
Efforts to stop their paper- & e-junk in the various mailboxes are pretty ineffective, they just seem to ignore everything.
I doubt if that is really the Bankgiro lottery. Probably someone phishing for personal data from The Netherlands...
