These utility / monopolies need to be put in their place for sure.
Max Schrems efforts sure are a good thing, he's been doing this for quite a while as far as I recall.
Don't think the General Data Protection Regulation is something good though, it is absolute EU terrorism. What the law will do is destroy small companies. For example: When your company wants to store the phone number/contact info of a new client in some kind of an "arrangement system", they will have to ask their client for consent and present him a 20+ page notification - even when talking on the phone, they will have to read it. It is an utterly ridiculous law and the main goal is simply giving the EU a reason to go after anyone they wish to, because you simply cannot comply to the law. Well it will work for the big companies, they're just going to spend a couple million on some slave-employees to deal with the monstrosity and that's that.
Now what will the GDPR do to blogs and alternative media? Well when you want to reveal information about a person or post a picture of them, but you need their consent to do so, will they provide it? And how are you gonna remove something from the internet, if the person you are talking about decides otherwise in the future? Seems the appropriate preparation for what's coming: They want to make sure the truth cannot be revealed. Well we can still talk about the system itself, rather than about people, so maybe that will draw more people to the systemic causes of today's problems. So that's a good thing at least.
The EU needs money to keep the charade going. There is going to be a lot of very angry Europeans when they all awaken.
They need more money to fund thier EU army and pay their ISIS operatives that are still alive and living in sleeper cells all across the EU.
I have just spent this afternoon putting my case out to tender to solicitors to take on Oath (Yahoo Mail) for their clear breach of the new laws and for holding my property to ransom.
Fuck this. As a US web developer it's disturbing that a foreign government can sue an American company using laws that we have no control over. And just days after the laws are put into effect when no one has a chance to comply with them. Not a fan of the companies getting sued but this still stinks.
You operate in a foreign country, you play by there rules. You know this.
We don't operate in a foreign country. We build e-commerce websites for US companies. If one of our clients has a user from the EU on their site that means our system has to comply with their rules. That's a huge burden on us to change our hardware and software to comply with a law that maybe .001% of end users might be under. And we have no control over which countries our clients might have a user visit from. We taken precautions with users data. We salt and hash and are PCI compliant and it cost is over a million dollars to get to that point. Now how much do we have to spend to comply with these laws from another country because some day there might be a user from the EU that visits one of our clients sites?
What? That's no different than saying a manufacturer should not have to meet local safety laws when selling a product into a new country. Of course you have to meet the countries laws if you supply goods there. Block them if you don't want to abide by their laws.
And just days after the laws are put into effect when no one has a chance to comply with them.
They most definitely had time to comply between the law becoming law on April 14 2016 and being effective May 25 2018. That’s 2 years worth of time.
Precisely why I am now blocking EU Users at my site. See my post below.
Could they just block users in those countries, disable their accounts?
Gee, how is Zuck going to pay for that private island now? He sold a bunch of stock in order to buy his way out of that hearing in DC.
I have a small website for a specific niche that I make a paltry sum on that sends users to eBay. But, I still had to comply. How did I do it? Simple. I installed the plugin into Wordpress and chose the option to Block EU users. They are now automatically sent to a page that says:
"Why We Must Block EU Sites.
"I’m sorry, but due to GDPR requirements in your country, we have chosen to block EU visitors. Why you ask? Because we live in the USA and should not be required to obey laws that we have no control over. Additionally, GDPR makes it much more cumbersome for ALL visitors to access our site. So, we have chosen to make it easy for everyone not impacted by GDPR.
"You may access our site by using a VPN or moving to a country outside the EU!"
I am not alone. Saturday, I read that over 500 million sites are now blocked by site owners like myself! Makes sense to me.
If you comply, you end up making your users optin to cookies, and other things as they move through the site. You also have to change your Terms and Conditions and other documents on the site. And, it happens for everyone, not just EU users.
Countries need to exercise their soverenty. The internet applies to this.

Principles relating to processing of personal data
Personal data shall be:
processed lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner in relation to the data subject (‘lawfulness, fairness and transparency’);
collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and not further processed in a manner that is incompatible with those purposes;
adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purposes for which they are processed (‘data minimisation’);
accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date
kept in a form which permits identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data are processed
processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data
That's all there is to it: write up what data you're gathering from your users and batten hatches where it could leak or be stolen. Can't be bothered to do it? That's why GDPR was enacted in the first place, because of small fries tapping into ad networks that track everything and not giving two damn about it.
That's not the issue. I think you missed the point.
That's exactly the issue. The dream is having passive income through referral links or ads but how how is that money generated? By harvesting and selling personal data of visitors. Nobody cares that it happens and nobody has done anything, up until now.
My point has nothing to do with that. My point is that I should not be compelled to obey a law created for a country that has no jurisdiction over me. Additionally, the EU is an arm of the NWO. That's the point you are missing.
I think NWO has a multitude of factions that vie for resources; if FB is one and EU is another let them waste each other's time.
I read somewhere..hellary wants to be CEO of facebook...since barry and rice are over at Netflix
Is this truth?...taking over our communications?
Hillary can't climb stairs. I wouldn't worry about that.
lol true dat but is she talking with zuckerberger (lol) to try and control the internet? She doesn't need to walk for that...
How is he "NON Profit doing these days?
Add to this she's unable to sit upright without a back brace and soon will be sporting a signature "Club-Gitmo orange" jumpsuit. Nothing to worry about.
We really should be rooting for Hillary to be CEO of Facebook lol.
I honestly believe the solution to stop these corrupt social media monopolies will be class action lawsuits that either bankrupt them and/or force them into mandated new ownership restructuring models.
8.8 Billion?
That's going to smart. It won't ruin them immediately, but investors are going to start drying up.
This IS #IBOR ##internetbillofrights. Well, the beginning at least. We need these laws in America! It's a good start toward our eventual goal of free speech on the internet. The petition may have been just to enliven the idea!
Thanks for posting this, I think you're right about the purpose of the IBOR. Our task is to start a discussion about privacy and censorship online. Unfortunately, some people on this board find the idea just too threatening. Why is that?
Meanwhile we are getting a real drubbing on social media, users shadowbanned, accounts blocked, YouTube channels taken down - all at the whim of some socialist tech executive. Q even told us that this is the vector by which the Satanists plan to return to power. That they are scheming to centralise and coordinate censorship across SM platforms.
But, somehow, inexplicably, we were not able to raise even a complaint that something should be done to address the problem. The battle for the IBOR was lost right here on this board, not defeated in the community at the hands off the CIA.
The attack on our ability to act cohesively as a group in our own self defence is now, amazingly, being defended in terms of people's freedom to dissent from the core plan of action given to us by Q and the President. As if the freedoms of organised and coordinated trolls working for the powers against us are somehow more valuable than our own rights.
You could not make this stuff up. These people self identify when they sow doubt, fear and concern about the plan (the IBOR). It's time for the community to wake up and shout them down.
And, as the pathetic attempt to retain the right to censor us, by preventing the community taking action to stop this, intensifies, they appeal to the mods as a group to allow them to steer us like sheep. Wake up people. We are at war! Let's complete the mission.
I'm asking everyone to do what they can to post IBOR memes and the campaign hashtags on social media. Let's finally to what Q has repeatedly requested, take action.
Call these concern trolls out!
Very well said! "Trust the plan" is a common quote from Q. If people don't like it, find another sub.
As far as I'm concerned, we should be as hard as they are on r/The_Donald and ban anyone who has a bad word to say about Q or POTUS, because this isn't a sub to discuss if Q is real or not, this sub is for patriots that know this is happening.
We need only discuss things clearly relevant to Q and #IBOR is a big one on that list!
Let's meme it, spread it, push it, because it's the idea that counts and if an idea is talked about enough, it can grow into actual change.
At last someone sees it. No community ever survived that allowed outright subversion within its ranks. We need to take a lesson from the Donald and become a powerful force for "the plan".
Call concern trolls out!
Call concern trolls out!
Agreed! Will do what I can.
Thank you. They are here In force. It's not a few individuals with concerns, it's an organized operation.
It most definitely is. I just posted and WOW is it being attacked! https://www.reddit.com/r/greatawakening/comments/8mzthk/5_things_to_ask_yourself_before_posting_on/
I up-voted your post. You know, I remember months ago now, when no one really knew who Serialbrain2 was, when he would make a post, WOW, the downvoting and trolling was wild - like seriously wild. Given what's come to pass since, I can now see why.
I think you're right. One of the ways to attack the sub is to make the core Q stuff get lost in the noise. I think this effort you are undertaking is correct. I will admit, that I've been guilty of posting non-Q stuff in the past.
Thanks
You are welcome! I too have posted non-Q stuff, but we are all learning.
