Education has always been an expensive privilege; and the education sector has always been one of the most conservative. People chose profession once in their life and did not change it until retirement. Usually education meant studying at a university; self-taught people were rare.

Even those far outside the EU could not fail to notice this change. Email inboxes were overflowing with opt-out reminders. Cookie banners now obscure many websites, forcing users to agree to a privacy policy so that they can browse the content on the site. Although the GDPR document itself clocks in at 88 pages, the majority of what it covers can be summed up in one word — consent. If companies are processing personal data, it must be done with the explicit, informed consent of the individual. For some forms of marketing, such as email subscriber lists, this involved minimal changes.
