It was founded by Max Schrems, whom some of you might now for his lawsuits against Facebook a few years back, which ended the EU-US Safe Harbour and Privacy Shield data trade agreements.

It's mainly EU-centric which might be the reason why people here haven't heard of it before.

It's incredible what one dedicated man can accomplish through the court system. Makes me wonder what the world would be like if we just spent a little time educating our children about their digital rights in school.
