GDPR: Four letters that put fear into firms' hearts in 2018

robidy

GDPR isn't pronounced as a word...I suspect it's actually an initialism as opposed to an acronym.

However if we move from the realms of the English language to geekery then WTF, ROFL and CUNT are called acronyms but are technically initialisms.

Of course MYSQL and SQL could be either or a hybrid.

So this boxing day everyone's a winner ha ha :)
