    Welcome to the Serious Privacy podcast, where Paul Breitbarth, Dr. K Royal, and Ralph O'Brien celebrated the 10th anniversary of the #GDPR! Yea!! Okay, there is some debate on the birthday date, whether it is 2016 or 2018... where one is when it was signed into law and the other when enforcement went live.

    We challenge poeple to vote!

    We discussed the highs, the lows, the dirty, the clean, the boots on the ground stories - oh what sweet memories.
