In case you missed it, and not following along with the looming laws about to hit ad-tech, this "techie's rough guide to #GDPR" from January is an easy and enlightening read.

Frankly, after reading that, I'm looking forward to the web exploding in a couple months.
Seriously. And publishers too. It's going to shake up the whole game. I'm looking forward to the action.
I almost used the popcorn line, btw. lol
@wion @starbreaker also you can't assume your userbase is all americans, mexicans, canadians what ever. Far easier to comply with GDPR and be done with it.
Right. As Keith was saying here...

...any site that serves EU citizens is affected, not just EU sites.
I see only good coming from this, if it means breaking ad-tech ribs. Some casualties might happen, of course, but the greater benefit could be worth it.
We'll see.
@wion interesting times ahead :)
@wion It's too bad #GDPR only applies to #EU citizens, but this should still make Google and Facebook freak out.
