Indeed it is. We engaged our legal counsel (top 5 global firm in the tech space) to help us understand its impact on us. Even the firm’s “expert” on GDPR still had unanswered questions saying that many nuances will have to be fought out in the courts. That’s not an acceptable risk to my small business.
