- disgruntledphd2 5y agoPersonally, I'm just refusing to accept it to see what (if anything) they'll actually do about it.
- kilburn 5y agoThat's what they want you to believe. The other point is: > Additional Information On How We Handle Your Data. Our updated Terms and Privacy Policy provide more information on how we process your data, and our commitment to privacy. How nice! However, this is specifically targeted at GDPR-covered users. GDPR won't allow them to do anything that is not explained (and hence "consented" to by the user). To me, the logical conclusion is that their lawyers went "we can't do XXX, YYY, ZZZ unless we explain them explicitly". Then their marketing team spun it up as "look at how nice we are". The reality is that they wouldn't explain shit unless they absolutely need to. Since they didn't explain before, I'm pretty sure there are things they can't (legally) do with my information under the previous agreement that they would be able to (legally) do with the new one.
