just because it hasn’t been approved for GDPR

that’s not what the article actually says, and I don’t think any formal approval is needed anyway (you might get fined if you don’t comply with the GDPR). The article claims:

lack of clarity contained in the EU’s Digital Markets Act

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
