Random emails for other people

= @vapemac - you misunderstand me there. I was not inferring at all that you were being difficult. No issue at all.

@Miss Pepper thank you for time in addressing this. That is exactly what I refer to.

Sorry my misunderstanding

Looks like someone’s going to fall foul of the GDPR [emoji3]

Yep, I’m not sure anything can happen to a company in China though. Although it can’t be very good for their reputation with folks on here who use them.

I now have the email Ste recieved and it discloses my full name / home address and phone no.

It seems this occurred also with 4 other people including him.

I think enforcement will be difficult maybe. No one really knows how it’s going to affect any companies yet. The wording is so vague in some cases. My guess is there’s going to be some high profile court cases in the later half of this year before precedent is set.

Why will it be difficult to enforce? For example, in this case, its such a blatant breach that gearbest would have no come back.

Sorry I was talking generally because of the vagueness of a lot of aspects of the regulations rather than in this specific case.

Although in this case I don’t really see how the EU will be practically able to enforce fines on a Chinese company. But I’m not a lawyer [emoji846]
