Turning GDPR into GDR

Just remember, it's perfectly safe to have all your data online in the EU because of all the great privacy and data protection... Except of course in cases where the national security is involved. So if you want to vote for something your government doesn't approve of, and they accuse you of sedition and disobedience, beware, because all that lovely data protection isn't going to help you.

"Member States have the right to limit confidentiality of communications of citizens to safeguard one or more of the general public interests referred to in Article 23(1) (a) to (e) of the General Data Protection Regulation. This maintains in particular the existing possibility to limit these rights for reasons related to national security or criminal law enforcement."
