GDPR allows you to ask reasonably. Repeated attempts to overwhelm the target are not allowed.

You are annoyed by stupid people who think they need a bunch of third party trackers on their site. Nobody, even not the EU, has problems with first party cookies. This will change anyways with the GDPR.

Almost all criminal law I know of has a clause "...up to x years/month". We are pretty fine with this since decades. Why should this be different?

No. But I would expect that the government (or a doctors professional organization on behalf) publishes a list of things he is allowed to use to work with patient data. Windows 10 shouldn't be on the list in my opinion.

Is there any reputable audit of this? Beyond what Microsoft claims? This is a difficult problem. The software could be audited by an independent third party. However each update needs to be audited as well. Furthermore the binary of the ini

To have IP lawyers go after you. Of course there are no benefits and only downsides for natural persons. I have little sympathy for ICANN with this. Malevolent persons can always go to registrars which do not publish personal information an

I remind you, very sensitive data is handled on Windows 10 Pro machines. Or would you require each doctor to maintain an Enterprise IT infrastructure. Here in Germany, it is still controversial whether Windows 10 machines can be used in pub

But how will this affect selling of counterfeits? The article points only out that Birkenstock will tell its customers it doesn't sell on Amazon, but unaware customers can still be fooled, imho.

You need to find them first. At this point, this is already moot. Electric jamming won't work if they are wired.

It's already tested in Germany (a Berlin train station afair) for viability with volunteers. A similar test a few years ago failed (too many false negatives, afair).

They may, but these institutions are keen on cures and not on treatments. I am completely on the side of having government agencies developing cures and licensing out to companies then. This would avoid the perverse incentive of the OP. It

With GDPR, you may get in hot water pretty quick when forwarding thoughtlessly. At least in a corporate setting, you may think twice about it. Edited to add: Granting for instance access to your contacts fro an app is controversial from a l

I believe that, unfortunately, only weapons with little military use are banned. Take, for instance, chemical weapons. These are pretty much useless in modern (highly mobile) warfare. Take another example, mines. There is a treaty on bannin

Do you have citations for this? AFAIK state of the art is to put the password through some password stretching algorithm (like PKBDF) and to encrypt the database with that. No need to store the password. I think NaCL offers out-of-the-box s

If I understand correctly, warrants must be served unchallenged as long as there is no mutual treaty with the originating country? What incentive would then be left for the government to negotiate those?

How does this algorithm ensure that wide bridges are built (lets say more than 10 body lengths wide)? Even if the final bridge would be stable the intermediate steps imply a much higher torque.
