| > Weren't you the one previously saying that don't panic (https://jacquesmattheij.com/gdpr-hysteria) because of GDPR back in the day? Yep. > And now you are advocating that they should have already complied with GDPR given its impact! Obviously yes, because today the law becomes enforceable. Not having done the required work is just plain dumb. > Make up your mind. I made up my mind well over a year ago, spent the time required to be compliant (a couple of days) and that was that. Instapaper being as small as it is would not have had to spend more time than that unless they are doing something they shouldn't be doing, are unable to plan or changed tactics in the last 2 days. After all, if they weren't going to make the deadline they had a very long time to announce that, instead they announce it the day before the law becomes enforceable. That's just not ok. At a minimum they should have had their export facility up and running. > Stop attacking people who haven't complied because small developers have other things rather than trying to figure out whether they have to redo their logs if a user asks their data to be deleted. I suspect you are in the same boat? > This is almost bullying behavior. Right. Well, sorry, it really isn't, it's the perspective of someone who has been in business for a very long time and who feels that the GDPR addresses some fairly urgent matters. Companies have been running roughshod over users' privacy rights for decades and it is one of the worst things to come out of the internet. The level of tracking and data brokering that is going on is utterly disgusting. If you weren't doing anything you shouldn't be doing the GDPR is going to be a pretty simple affair if you're a small company. Larger companies will have some more work but have more resources. |
