I just read an interesting article in nytimes:

https://mobile.nytimes.com/2018/03/06/business/economy/user-data-pay.html?smid=fb-nytimes&smtyp=cur&referer=http://m.facebook.com/

basically it states what the world could have been if google, facebook and other massive organizations would pay us for the data they harvest from our use of their services and being sold for advertisers.

new GDPR regulation starting in may obligate all data harvesting companies (mostly in EU countries) to get a consent from their users. this is a real revolution in the data world. until these no publisher paid any attention to the user. now the user most pay his consent in order for the organizations to use it. and also the user can own the information and remove it or sell it.

so after all of these my question is in regard to BTT is if the keep any information about us and if so will they ask for our consent after May?

thoughts?

GDPR concerned every data controller, which processes personal data of EU citizens or on the territory of the EU, so it also related BTT. I think there is numerous personal data, for example IP addresses (IP is considered to be personal data by court decision).

correct.

i really wonder if they comply since you know, this is not the most established organization in the world.
