I honestly am not sure where I'd stand on the EU as a good example of privacy. Unfortunately I don't think the GDPR has been effective in retrospect. They're at times hostile towards corporate spying, which is good. But, they're extremely bullish on state spying and policing social media. They're willing to outsource this to corporations sometimes too. It's pretty good, or some countries are, if you want to stay private from US corporate interests but when it comes to themselves the EU seems to think your right to privacy online is an obstacle for them.
