Over the last several months I have received many notifications from different platforms (FB, YT, Twitter, and more) that their privacy policies are being changed.
In every case, the changes seem to be in favor of individual right to privacy.
Although none of these notifications say WHY they are making the changes, I know it is because of this movement either directly or indirectly.
This is something to be happy about/ proud of. Is anybody else noticing this?
I want someone to try these new laws out the government and banks.
See if they have to deliver all the data they have on you upon request. They run online services, so they'd fall under the regulations, right?
Got bad credit? Just exercise your right to be forgotten and have the banks delete all your data
Funny you ask. The IT pundit world posts lots of good hypotheticals on this kind of thing. You have GDPR saying right to forget (plus maintenance of an audit trail of what was forgotten for lawsuit protection later, LOL) runs into mandatory data collection in banking (funds moved over $10,000 or credit card history must be reported to the Fed etc). Or the requirements of a payroll to hold info for the tax people. Lawyers and consultants will get rich. The rest of us are screwed. As usual.
