I want to stay and use EXcommunity despite EU data law deadline 25th May - is it possible?

 Got this message:

BecomeAnEX is committed to helping tobacco users achieve their vision of a tobacco-free future. Friday, we will be updating our site accessibility in light of a European data protection law, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). If you live in an EU-member country, you will no longer have access to BecomeAnEX.org or the EX Community once GDPR goes into effect on May 25, 2018. We encourage you to print or write down any information from BecomeAnEX that you rely on as you quit and stay quit, and exchange other ways to communicate with members of the EX Community. Thank you for making BecomeAnEX part of your tobacco-free journey!

 

If you have questions about what GDPR means for you, please direct them to Megan (EX Product Manager)

Please find a way!!!!!!

Thanks for taking the time, Mark.

We'll find out on friday and thereafter if there is a go around. 

Perhaps I can use some (one else's) skill and use a network that hides my ip address, sucks that borders exist online but there may be a way.

Check out what Dale said on this blog about VPN.  /blogs/linda.mustafa-blog/2018/05/24/i-will-not-be-able-to-log-in-from-a-european-ip-any-longer 

Also, people are staying connected with each other on facebook.  

Will Try Tor, which is free privacy software. 😉

What? I don't mind receiving further info, even though I quit smoking.

If this is a problem - fine, unsub me.

Emil-  It's great to see that you can still participate via email even if you cannot view the site any longer.

Congrats on your quit!

Hello Mr. MARK,  am sorry I respond late to your mail, thanks for informing me.It'seems a EU law that I will look into. I do not want to leave this community even if i'm figuring things out. GDPR , ....to be honest with you all in the community,  it'seems an uncouth law, at least here in Italy ....if I could i'do have a loooooooooooong conversation about this, but no please do not remove me from this community. I found the community many years ago while I was still in the American continent.I had to return because of various burocratice issues and we'll.  I still remember speaking, dialogues with many members. I wouldn'the know how to trace them back.a question if I quit quit, may one still be in the community? In any caseptic Italian laws on internal matters arelating shenanigans! But thanks for informing me , I wonder how EU privacy laws will affect I. E. This country i will definitely try to understand better.have a good Sunday and thank you very much,roberta mac Eachen . ....
