[gnso-rds-pdp-wg] Krebs On Security article RE whois and GDRP

[consult at cgomes.com]

Trying to protect non-European natural persons dealing with European
companies seems reasonable to me, but I don't understand how the GDPR could
protect non-European natural persons dealing with non-European companies.

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.
