On 25th May, the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) will come into force, changing the rules about how people’s data is obtained, stored and used. I expect you’re thrilled.
As every company that wishes to hold user data for any reason is frantically emailing for permission, we can enjoy these 16 jokes on the topic.
