From the link "We consider the infringements to be serious. Disqus has tracked which news sites and articles readers in Norway have visited. Additionally, this has happened without the users’ knowledge."
Based on that statement a lot will follow.
- zpeti 5y agoNot so long ago I stumbled on https://data.disqus.com https://data.disqus.com, which basically outlines what they were fined for. They should probably take that site down soon...

- hunter2_ 5y agoAside: isn't it weird how often "email addresses" is shortened to "emails"? At first glance I had to contextually infer whether it was 215M addresses or 215M messages (pieces of mail) because we also often shorten the latter to "emails" when working through our inboxes. If you're running a marketing campaign and say "today we finally hit 1000 emails" without further clarification, nobody will know if that's 1000 subscribers or 1000 newsletters.
