While it all sounds very promising, it is a huge project. You can do it once, but are you willing to maintain it for the next 10 years? Keep up with updates, patch vulnerabilities, find vulnerabilities, and all of that? If not, it is likely not worth it.

    The UK GDPR is officially referred to as the UK GDPR, while the European GDPR is just called the GDPR, as it is the original.

    This community is mainly for the GDPR, likely the European one, as the EDPB is mentioned in the description.

    The GDPR applies to everyone providing services in the EEA, as per Art. 3 GDPR.

    Therefore you should've clarified that you're referring to the UK GDPR.

    It’s not illegal.

    It obviously is. Your understanding of the GDPR and ePrivacy Directive seems very flawed. Cookie banners aren't necessary, and are in many cases illegal, that has already been confirmed. Blame the website providers.

    A friend of mine uses Linux Mint as their operating system. But since a while now they're unable to get the microphone audio to work. It's detected by the operating system and applications, but no audio is detected by the application or heard by participants, except for Discord.

    I wasn't able to find the cause of this issue, we've tried common solutions like rebooting, removing the device from the Bluetooth device lists (they use headphones), etc.

    Any help would be very appreciated :)

     

    I am currently dealing with a data protection case that concerns a company located in the UK. I'm wondering if it is, legally speaking, possible to file a complaint directly with the Information Commissioner’s Office, or if I am required to file a complaint with a local authority, since the UK is not part of the European Union. Please provide your sources if you know the answer or have any helpful information.
