RE: GDPR Compliance for Steem - Who Is Responsible? An Update After Speaking With UK Gov.

hehe.. I'm pretty sure that that attempt to sidestep is irrelevant as far as the EU is concerned as the legislation states that it applies everywhere as long as EU people are the data 'subjects'.. That said, I think they misunderstood the terms of the legislation, since as far as I know it is also irrelevant whether links point to the EU or not as all that is at issue is whether private data of identifiable humans is being stored.

Yes, that's bullshit, too. If the SEC wants to make an example of EOS, they'll nail them for advertising on Time Square. Their terms and conditions won't save them when they aren't in line with reality.
