GDPR Means Unroll.me and Pinterest's Instapaper Unavailable in Europe

&gt; Pinterest&#x27;s news-clipping service Instapaper is one of the most high-profile examples. EU users have been banned from accessing its platform since last Friday. Pinterest has emailed users to say that this is a temporary measure and that it intends to &quot;restore access as soon as possible&quot;.<p>Underline the word temporary there. Anybody deciding to just exit EU because of GDPR should consider the possibility that a high profile EU competitor appear, which can possibly trump you saying &quot;this is almost the same thing, but GDPR compliant&quot;. I personally would pick the EU alternative among two almost-identical products.
