I find it staggering how misunderstood GDPR seems to be at large. First and foremost, it's not about cookies. EU laws required you to inform visitors about "cookies" and have them acknowledge them long before GDPR passed into

yep, that's exactly what i mean by "informed & written" - quite literally it must be active by definition of "informed", but furthermore in a way that is clear to the user of WHAT he actively consented to, and w

in fact it can't and shouldn't be precise, as this would still make the iser clearly identifiable. You have to discern between GDPR (which governs tracking purposes as well) and E-Privacy laws (which concern PII) here

"the banner" is nowhere stated in the law. it's a way people have chosen to comply with the law, and most of the implementations currently out there are still in violation of what the law states. The law simply mandates you g

honestly this is terrible advice. I know it's annoying to many people, but the EU isn't autonomously pursuing corps big or small - its legislation will kick into action if _anyone_ files a complaint after visiting your website, an

Not a lawyer myself, but as far as my understanding goes you are identifying your user already by determining his ip, and all the transformations you do to create an id is still reversible with the fixed seeds in your script - so you'l

There's actually another village called Fugging in Lower Austria, i assume the name was chosen to keep it phonetically close to Fucking but within the linguistic boundaries of "common" village names. Also, a "Fock"

I feel like the article intentionally misses a huge point about those color palette generators. They aren't and weren't ever meant to be used as-is. They intend to give you a base of color harmonies from wich to derive all those s

One could argue that simply visiting the (video-) page downloads the media, and therefore download is much easier than upload any way you look at it - but i suppose you mean "a way to save the actual file that is easily understandable

which might also work without bail, as incarcerating the accused would cost tax money anyway - so it doesn't work too well just as an incentive for showing up, but also doesn't hinder the accused from fleeing or destroying evidenc

of course, but how does this stop anyone from _fleeing_ once bail is made or from obfuscating evidence whilst awaiting trial?

I honestly don't really see the pro side. Assuming the accused is guilty and financially well able to pay for bail, this sounds like a pretty good deal to me to just drop some cash, write it off, and be able to leave and never show up
