Ep 96: What you need to know about Internet Law in the Age of the GDPR

Have you heard of the GDPR or the General Data Protection Regulation? Do you know what's behind the recent takedown of Backpage? Richard Chapois a lawyer that has been practicing on the front lines of internet law for decades. I was able to speak to him about some of the recent regulation and what that will mean for small business and the world. According to Richard, there is a global trend of governments fighting back against the tech companies. He believes this will result in what he calls "The Splinternet" where the internet will be drastically different depending on where you are geographically. In addition we talk about what internet business owners need to keep in mind to stay in compliance with current and upcoming legislation. I found the interview to be fascinating and I think you probably will as well. Thanks for listening! We hope you enjoyed this podcast. If so, please leave a review here. It REALLY helps us out!
