 * Do you mean GDPR?
 * WordPress will introduce tools to assist with GDPR compatibility in 4.9.6, but
   GDPR compatibility for specific plugins and themes is up to their developers.
   We expect the tools will improve in future releases, but you, as the site owner/
   operator, are the one responsible for ensuring compliance the GDPR and any local
   variations that may be introduced.
 * Follow [https://wordpress.org/news](https://wordpress.org/news) to keep updated
   on what WordPress is doing in upcoming releases, and look to local sources for
   general GDPR questions.

 * Don’t worry too much about that AVG. You can’t control the whole of internet
