Tapani,

Thanks for this. I believe that if we properly analyze the requirements for a revised and improved RDS, we should be able to meet the GDPR requirements as well as similar requirements elsewhere, and the result should serve the Internet community quite well.

Thanks,

Steve

Intended beneficiaries of the GDPR are all the people in the world.

The recitals make that quite clear.

In particular EU wants to protect also non-European individuals
against European companies even if that would mean giving competitive
advantage to non-European companies, strange though that may seem to
some.
