    I mean I know what the GDPR is, but like most here (in the tinier EU countries who just gets to watch what the Europeans do in the EU) its sort of confusing why its there? It seems technically complex, strangely or overly defined and without much support.

    I just did an interview at our city library and even that ment I had to sign a GDPR waiver as it was recorded and uploaded (or would be). Just like we all online (click accept as fast as possible) everyone involved just sighed and signed.
