> If it doesn't, and you're an EU company who has an employee using something as trivial as Notion, you're already in violation

There are only two possible interpretations of this sentence:

1. You have just confessed to a crime. Do your engineers store user data in Notion?

2. You have just confessed to not having even a single clue about GDPR and what it entails. Your engineers using Notion will not make your company liable for GDPR unless bullet point 1.

> This is further complicated by the fact that, as it turns out, having access to US intelligence isn't so bad in the context of Russia-Ukraine.

Ah yes. Your shitty company selling user data left and right to "our privacy-preserving partners" is the same as "access to US intelligence in the context of Russia-Ukraine"

Ah, you again! I see you’ve looked up all my comments to respond with vitriol to all of them. Doesn’t help to undermine my point that this has become a topic of religious dogma here.

No, I am not selling user data, nor is the vast vast majority of companies affected by GDPR. Please do not assume bad faith as it ends useful discussion (and is against HN guidelines).

So you believe GDPR and the ePrivacy directive (which people here unknowingly conflate) are the most perfect words ever put on paper and there is nothing that could be improved?

You think yourself more important than you really are. I've replied to many comments in this discussion, and three of them, I think, happened to be yours. Two of them happened in the same thread. This one.

> No, I am not selling user data, nor is the vast vast majority of companies affected by GDPR. Please do not assume bad faith as it ends useful discussion

Ah yes. Where good faith is "GDPR is bad because wellfare state and US intelligence"?

> So you believe GDPR and the ePrivacy directive (which people here unknowingly conflate) are the most perfect words ever put on paper and there is nothing that could be improved?

So, good faith and non-circular arguments are assigning words to opponents and trying to make them argue something they never said, apparently.

Imagine if anti-GDPR crowd actually argued in good faith. I can't. Because of behaviour like this.
