    just had some onboarding training about the GDPR and I really don’t get US “privacy activists” disdainful view of it. It puts the individual before corporations. Sad if it’s atttempted to be gutted

      From what I’ve seen, people dislike it because it’s the reason we have, for example, those stupid cookie popups everywhere, or that some services simply refuse to operate in the EU so they don’t have to comply, as if that were the GDPR’s fault and not a symptom of corporations trying to get around the regulations.
