Oracle and free in same sentence is laughable to say the least, everything they touch turns into money grabing venture, and even if free now there is no guarantee it will be free tomorrow.

Not necessarily existing system. Any system where people are truly equal. Even in communism you will have leaders, and leaders will enjoy some form of higher privilege. So collective ownership of the, in lack of the better word, stuff wou

Which form of society would allow for complete equality? Where everyone has the same things to eat, drink and learn and everyone is missing the same things (usually luxury). I can’t think of any social system like that mostly cos it all inv

actually what you quoted might as well apply to query as it is actually processing data... and again the point is the regulation is vague... it can be interpreted in multiple way before we get precedents.

that’s the whole issue with the regulation unfortunately :(

when you give out you data you are doing it willfully. thinking it’s a good idea to give your personal data to FB is not FBs fault, it’s yours.

by mirko22 8y ago
there is also a long history of people giving up their personal data to get some (overall) irrelevant service and then being surprised when their data is missused...

by mirko22 8y ago

Yes, and before that it says ` If the data subject's consent is given in the context of a written declaration which also concerns other matters,` which means i can use legalese but only if it does not concern other matters in the same

> in far better detail than I will be able to. Far better details? It gives vague info on what might be considered personal data... I would not call it very detailed. In most cases just says personally identifiable information.

Actually, you can keep order data as it has to do with VAT law but you have to keep it in line with GDPR... So it not just writing some documentation, rather making sure your data is secured with up to date and taking into account state of

Facebook is not a utility by it self, it is a web site, if you start regulating it what stops the government to regulate pretty much anything on the internet?
