- tobr 4y agoThere are so many problems with that with regard to GDPR. It’s not even linked from the signup page, so I’ve never even been informed about it. I’ve never been given the option to consent or reject consent to anything. You also can’t just say it’s “irrevocable” and pretend like GDPR doesn’t apply.

So what's next? Prohibiting git clone on the kernel git? Because someone could do summary statistics there?
