"Know Your Rights" - Social Media Data Privacy
"Know Your Rights"
Fellow Steemians, I felt this topic was fitting for my first post.
As many may know, this regulatory effort by the European Union has been brewing for a while now. In May 2018, the EU will put into effect Article 21, EU GDPR "Right to object" to the processing of personal user data for marketing and other purposes. Aside from the negative effects these new EU regulations will impose upon FB, IG, YT, etc..., this further displays the critical need for Steem, Steemit and Steem-based communities. Here is an overview from today's Bloomberg.com on the EU regulation and what should be implemented in the U.S.
The EU PrivazyPlan “Right to object”:

Thank you in advance for your comments. Please follow @armentor as I will have news in the near future that will be beneficial to Steem, Steemit and Steemians.
Americans innovate, Europeans regulate. haha in this case, certainly a good thing to protect unsuspecting (and naive by default) users.
definitely positive for steem and apps built on it.
I moved to my current city 15 years ago. Pretty rural place. There was this farm that had a sign posted outside that had a picture of a devil and said "Agenda 21 The Devil Is In The Details!" Over the years I have come to understand what they are implying. Can't say I feel completely informed but I try to pay attention. Thanks for sharing.
Agree re devil is in the details. I just learned something... Agenda 21. Thank you.
