La caracterización como consumidores de los usuarios de las redes sociales ha venido resultando determinante para facilitar el acceso de tales usuarios a los tribunales de su domicilio en las demandas frente a prestadores de dichos servicios situados en el extranjero. La nueva sentencia Schrems realiza presiones adicionales acerca de la caracterización de los contratos de consumo en el marco de las redes sociales. El nuevo Reglamento General de Protección de Datos está llamado a representar una significativa novedad cuando comience su aplicación en mayo de 2018, como consecuencia de la inclusión de reglas adicionales de competencia.

The current situation is discussed connection with the New General Data Protection Regulation which be applicable in May 2018 and brings about significant changes in this regard, particularly because it includes additional rules on international jurisdiction.
