  It moved from Ireland to the Netherlands, both are in the EU. This will not change anything regarding GDPR.

  GDPR applies regardless of where headquarters are located

    Yes, but it’s easier to enforce EU regulations when the headquarters happens to be within the EU.

      A move from Ireland to the Netherlands doesn’t really change much in that regard.

        Idk, they’re a bit closer to Brussels, so there’s that…

    There is always the issue of “x applies” and “x is enforcable”. Think of Signal or Telegram here.

  Aren’t there tax benefits to incorporating in Ireland? Conventional thought would suggest that the tax/regulatory environment in the Netherlands would be less attractive? Maybe that’s wrong… I wonder what their reasons for moving were. Is that where Steve Huffman wants to build his new doomsday bunker? Gotta spread out just in case. Maybe connect it to the one in CA with a massive underwater tunnel lol.
