GDPR @James 47

Why would this be violation of GDPR?

I live in a GDPR covered country, and you're free to share any personal chat/recording or e-mail as long as you have been taking part in it - and if it's not business / state secrets for example.

Eavesdropping or reading other peoples' email is not allowed, and that's not the case in this IRC log.

Perhaps the laws in England don't allow airing your correspondence but I doubt it.
