It's actually very simple - because of the nature of their use of the data. Laws can have subtlety, its not a magic on or off switch - if you want aggregate data for the number of bicycles that's not the DNA sample from each pass

In my opinion anything like this is just failing to address the real problem, which can only be addressed by legislation. Having someone put a label that says "this is poison" on it does not improve the consumer situation when you

Yeah, see my second sentence - throwing up your hands and claiming inaction isn't the way to solve anything. Saying "but the billionaires don't want it!!" sure, let me pre-give up so its super easy for them to keep winni

Check the shrink wrap - in most localities you are leasing a license for which they tell you that you accept all liability and failure upon yourself.

If we can have a murder investigation and assign partial blame for people that are just there while the crime is being committed, why cant we do it for something that harms the entire human race? Just because we don't have a great fram

And the same is true for almost all those names the GP posted - they are big because of network effects - most people dont have time to evaluate the "quality" of software. In the long term the "quality" of software can

I would say there are times that doing math with a primary key is a useful property (say, getting the Nth primary key (or so)) but if you are exposing it in an API I would say you would never even want a primary key projected in the first p

It doesn't really matter when you have stuff like Quantum Intercept(iirc) where you can just respond faster to a browser request than the originator - inject the code yourself because its just an api request these days.

Nope, windows 11 was extremely shoehorned in and the public has no obvious need or benefit for it, which is why they tried to auto update everyone and then force an out of support situation. This is the same microsoft that said win 10 would
