GDPR the death of Facebook and Google

Well, I admit, this title is a bit noisy and P*** clicks!

On the other hand, I would like to share my vision with you.

If you have a business via Facebook you may have some things to worry about!

For what ?

Many people were impatiently awaiting the release of this law to attack the web giants.

It would not be surprising to see thousands of complaints against them in the coming days and weeks.

It must be said that when it comes to data collection, Google and Facebook are pulling out all the stops 😂

A priori this could represent 4% of their turnover!

I’ll let you imagine the amount of fines.

Obviously they are giants equipped with an army of lawyers and they will not let this happen.

The common problem, the business model

On the other hand, the business model of these two giants is based on advertising and that is what will cause the problem.

To provide advertisers with reliable targeting, they need to collect a lot of data!

So if the law is applied to the letter, they would have to abandon advertising and switch to paid subscriptions. So it’s not even possible because it’s too late.

In addition, we know very well that the law will not be applied to the letter on these giants (just on the small ones) but imagine if that happened?

Should Facebook and Google do without Europe?

Not even in dreams !

There you say to yourself that I am in a paranoid and conspiratorial delirium 😂

Not that much!

It is indeed possible that they would decide to leave Europe if the law was really applied.

That would solve the problem quickly…

Obviously, I don’t really mean what I write but it’s something to think about, as they say.

And then we know very well that with all the money and the lawyers they have they will be able to drag things out.

It smells like change

Everything I say is fiction, but other things will change, that’s a certainty!

For example, on GDPR day I noticed a sharp drop in cryptocurrencies! Coincidence?

The biggest players on Twitter have lost thousands of followers.

From now on, you must be over 16 to register on Twitter or have parental authorization.

Brief !

We clearly feel the wind turning at the moment and a lot of things are going to change.

You may have noticed that you receive a lot of emails from people who want to be GDPR compliant.

So everyone updates these T&Cs and their privacy policies.

A turning point in the web?

I actually think so.

And who says change says new opportunities!

In fact, personally I love change.

It must be said that in recent years it was a bit of a underwear party on the web where you could do anything and especially anything.

This big kick in the anthill will certainly allow things to be done more cleanly.

For the smartest and those who know how to take the turn and adapt, there will be opportunities galore!

What do you think?

Do you like change?
