Google Lauds 2FA Results—So Why do People HATE It? - Security Boulevard

Oh No EU Didn’t: Meta, Facebook’s parent, warned investors that it might need to pull out of Europe. Why? Because it might not have a legal basis for transferring users’ data outside of the GDPR zone.

Europe takes privacy super seriously. In today’s #SBBlogwatch, we wish U.S. lawmakers did.
