US news sites closed to Europeans due to GDPR
By EUobserver
Several US news sites including The Los Angeles Times and Chicago Tribune have temporary been taken offline in Europe in response to European Union GDPR data rules, which came into effect on Friday. "Unfortunately, our website is currently unavailable in most European countries," reads a message greeting visitors to the sites. Other US media like the New York Times have not restricted access for Europeans amid GDPR.
