The cards that are used to connect families in provinces in the Benelux as well as the family trees are published online are hugely anonymous, which means it’s nearly impossible to connect the dots as you don’t know when someone was born.

Uncertainty about how far the AVG goes are leading people to take a very heavy handed view of it.
