Hi,
? I didn't give you enough information to answer me ...
? The group I'm talking about has over 10,000 members.? That means
that simply isn't possible to get 'authorization' from all of the E.U.
members.
? Will we try?? Of course we will.? But in the end we are going to have
to transfer the group without having heard from each and every
member.? So we can't -know- we have their permission.? Can they
opt out themselves?? Yes.? That's not the issue.? The issue is about
transferring an individual person's membership (who lives in the
E.U.) from yahoo groups to groups.io.
? The real question is "does transferring someone who is in the E.U.
actually violate the E.U. regs (laws?) related to privacy?". These
regs/laws, as I understand it, are related to 'spam' and other
undesirable aspects of using the web.
? I can not disclose who told me about this - it was told to me in
confidence.
- Jim B.
