Comment on Nexus Mods to Enforce Digital ID Age Checks Under UK and EU Laws
BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.uk 3 weeks agoGenuinely curious, is it just as a side effect of appearing to come from an EU server that means you trigger automated privacy systems? Or is there a legal basis by which you can say “I routed this through an EU server therefore I’m subject to EU privacy law” (maybe there isn’t even a difference)

It’s as simple as getting the EU site and privacy policy when you connect from an EU IP. These systems are typically not as rigid as you might expect and the only friction might be around things like payment processing or things like that.
I get relatively uncensored internet access through UK/Ireland servers. This law and this type of law completely terrifies me.
