GDPR – A Practical Guide for Developers (2017)
I really don't understand how this is going to work in practice for small side projects with a single part-time developer. How are they supposed to afford implementing all these changes, none of which seem trivial or even practical for your standard little PHP site?<p>So if I run a forum as a side project, what are my options?<p>1) Spend all free time over the next few months adding these features and neglect any other work on the project.<p>2) Ignore the GDPR and hope nobody complains.<p>3) Shut down the side project.<p>Of course if you're Facebook or Twitter you just assign a few developers to this and you'll be fine. But I don't understand how this will not end up killing small-time web companies, or at least make them a lot less feasible to create.<p>I suspect many people will go for (2) and hope this fizzles out the same way the cookie law did.
