    Great to see more european services.

    Norway not being a member of EU, i had to check:

    The General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679), abbreviated GDPR, is a European Union regulation on information privacy in the European Union (EU) and the European Economic Area (EEA).

    👍

    That's not what they said

    Europe is a continent, EU is an alliance on that continent, not all European services are EU-based

    like i wrote under another comment, i don't care about Europe but the rights that come with GDPR and EU.
    I wasn't sure, i checked and i learned.
    I shared what i've learned thinking that there would be some others who, like me, wasn't sure about GDPR applicability in Norway.

    yeah, Norway is in Europe! Who cares? Hungary too is in Europe! Georgia too. Some percent of Turkey and Russia too.
    "European services"! Yay!
    Let's celebrate!

    Yeah, you're doing the "erm akchually" thing when it doesn't matter.

    not at all. Exactly like i wrote, i wasn't sure if GDPR was applicable in Norway.
    UK too is in Europe without, now, being in EU. Apparently GDPR is modified for UK.

    Russia too is considered a European state! "yay, European services!" ?
    It's not about "erm actually" and I don't understand why you're so defensive about my first comment.
