@Stephen66515: Had you intended a discussion on the OP - and if so, then what? -  or were you just posting the OP for information purposes? (Thankyou for posting it anyway.)

Aren't both of these threads (this one and this one) talking about the same thing?

This thread is talking about a regulation that makes companies legally responsible for protecting against breaches (and disclosing them), the other thread is about a ruling that prohibits governments from requiring all emails for all users to be retained for 1 year.

Both of the threads have the common, uh...  thread... that the ruling or regulation is by the EU, so there is the question about whether they will apply to the UK.

But as you said, they have a common thread, so discussing them in separate threads seems self defeating, since there will be much crossover.

It was mainly for informational purposes, but discussion is obviously welcome (otherwise why would I post it on a forum?) ;) haha
