You're making the mistake of thinking that the cookie consent requirements are somehow a consequence of GDPR. The cookie consent requirements exist separately from and additionally to GDPR as a consequence of the e-Privacy Directiv

It is not true that "functional" cookies are generally exempt from the consent requirement. What is concretely exempt are necessary cookies for a service that the user explicitly requested. This is not the case for cookies place

The website tried to rely on legitimate interest as the legal basis for processing the data, and that precisely requires a balancing test between the interests of the website host and the interests of the data subject. If you want to make s

A MAC of a message m can only be computed with the knowledge of a key K. Specifically, with a cryptographic hash function h, HMAC(K, m) = h(K + a || h(K + b || m)), where + is addition mod 2 (xor), || is concatenation and a and b are

p^μ is the μ-th component of the vector p, and in an equation p^μ = m u^μ, μ is to be taken as a free variable, i.e. the equation is true for every μ. In relativity, Greek indices are taken to range over time and the three spacial dimension

It may be forgivable to use dynamic mass in an article written for laymen and using a simple model of the atom, but I feel I should mention that the concept of objects changing mass depending on the reference frame is a very dangerous one b

This is what 23andMe said about that person's genome: "Has two mutations linked to limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. A person with two of these mutations typically has limb-girdle muscular dystrophy." Of course this not a diagn

This reminds me of a blog post in German [1] by a person who due to a software bug had been falsely diagnosed by 23andMe with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. (Fortunately, he was able to identify that it was a misdiagnosis.) It appears that

Unfortuantely, many common words seem to be filtered by the API. Some however are not, and they show a common growth pattern: http://hntrends.jerodsanto.net/?q=what%2C+you%2C+here

Obviously Assange (et al.) didn't ask anyone if they could leak sensitive data -- and perhaps they should have (but how exactly would that have gone do you expect?) -- but I believe Assange is acting on this above principle. In fact, Assa

It's quite silly that the author doesn't know this, but the feature he requests exists already and has existed for 10 years -- Privacy Extesions for SLAAC in IPv6 (RFC3041). It's even enabled by default on Windows.
