@emilygorcenski One must note that the GDPR does little outside of mandating that user should have the choice to say no or yes. And even if they say no then their that isn't a technically protection it's a legal one, and users aren't known to know how to protect themselves be it legally or technically. Such laws are a necessity I agree, but they don't solve the core problem of digital illiteracy and parasitic economical models.
@mangeurdenuage @emilygorcenski it wouldn't work anyway because they aren't going to announce they are storing private info and giving it to Chinese corporations.

@Moon @emilygorcenski @mangeurdenuage While it may not prevent a company from doing something; it would make it illegal. It would give legal grounds to more radical solutions in case the company is believed or proven to have transgressed the rules; such as fining the company or forcing it to close in the country.
