We've gone through a couple of audits from customers' GDPR-compliancy consultants. As a result we have have been triggerered to perform some well-over-due security reviews, thinking about security processes and data compartmentali

How about notching things up to NK levels? Russia has clearly demonstrated themselves to be a hostile state.

What do you mean, requires you to agree to something? I don't get how this applies to something you self-publish on the internet.

HN is full of morally totaly unscrupulous people. The typical Silicon Valley crowd actually celebrates the kind of privacy invasion that the GDPR is design to counteract. So, obviously it's no big surprise that these Silicon Valley bro

Jacques - I love the effort you've put into explaining the GDPR to clueless and needlessly exasperated (mostly) americans here on HN. To be honest I used to think you were just a shameless self-promoter like almost everyone else, but i

This video showing the hearses from just one of the flights bringing back bodies to the Netherlands is so powerful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P2NF45JfUkk We (the rest of the world) must bring Russia to justice over th

That does not seem relevant? You are certainly not giving them a license to do whatever they want to do with your content just by hosting an RSS index of mp3 files on the web.

Apple have basically spent the minimal amount of resources on Mac portables the past few years. We should all get the picture and migrate elsewhere, I'm afraid. Windows laptops are looking more and more appealing...

Well, no, it won't. It will however make sure that you're watching actual Obama 2, and not some computer simulation of him doing some disgusting thing.

I really like this idea. Every video frame from a political/public personality is cryptographically signed with their private key and edge viewing devices are able to tell if it's properly signed or not. It's easy to imagine

Are you suggesting EU intelligence agencies should abide by the GDPR?

So, just to repeat my stance: Google already knows everything about me. I have accepted that, sort of. However, they have crossed a line: they have made URLs ugly by default.

by falcon620 8y ago
In my case: no privacy paranoia (I just assume everything is being tracked and there's very little I can do about it). I just hate a) having ugly URLs b) having to manually edit the URLS before copy/pasting them somewhere else. Ma

I am not the author. I was just so tired of having to manually strip crap like "?utm_term=.b1e20fe33a88" from the end of URLs before sharing them. This extension solves that problem nicely. I wonder why Google doesn't build s

I did not write that because of this particular issue alone. Since they are a public company you can actually read their financials on the interwebs.

That's funny, the Tesla fans keep hating on Bloomberg. Could it be that everyone who writes critical pieces on their financials are hostiles?

Fiscal reality is catching up with them. When people on /r/teslamotors (it's normally a non-stop pep rally about Tesla, sort of like t_d is for Trump) are able to be upvoted for presenting critical thoughts about Tesla's
