GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) by the EU. Is btw also valid
and will be enforced in the Netherlands.

After your posting it is clear that you do not know what that is and
that you are lacking minimal know how about the issue.

Hmmm! The press, parlementary enquiries, etc. seem to think different,
because they demand the government to come up which copies of their
WhatsApp communications, so they can investigate their (non) actions.

But what do *they* know!? After all, the Usenet oracle Joerg Lorenz
says, they're not using WhatsApp, so there's nothing to come up with.

Sorry, but this - example out of a zillion - page does of course not
exist:

Duh! The *point* is that there *is* no "unsolicited spreading of
personal data" by WhatsApp users. That is - as I said, but you snip/
ignore - the urban legend which has been debunked several times in this
group.

If you think that there is "unsolicited spreading of personal data" by
WhatsApp users, then you have to provide proof by (credible) cites.

As you rather snip/dodge/divert, we're not holding our breath waiting
for such proof.

Non sequitur.
