If your contact with EU customers is only accidental/incidental then I don't believe you're under the GDPR cover. [ https://gdpr-info.eu/recitals/no-23/ ]

Acronis, a german corporation, is implementing the GDPR too [0] and they recommend that if possible, you split backups per customer, if that is not practical atleast do your best to protect the data and don't keep it for unnecessary ti

The grace period for the GDPR started in 2016 when it was adopted. Everyone had over 2 years to read and implement the GDPR. All those concerns about the GDPR are, as far as I can tell, younger than a year, most of them even younger than a

I don't think I've heard of many EU regulatory bodies that will immediately go for the maximum punishment the moment anyone does a minor infraction. First you get a letter, then a sternly worded letter, then a tap on the finger, a

Is it truly a WORM store that cannot delete any data ever never? If so, you'll need to encrypt the data in a way that allows you to make records inaccessible. If the WORM store rotates out old data (webserver logs, tape backups with re

Webserver logs are totally fine since you need them for information security (ie, finding out who has been spamming your webserver with requests), just use the default NGINX settings, in most distros that means deleting old logs automatical

You don't necessarily need a screenshot, a copy of the webpage the user saw would IMO be sufficient. You need to be able to show the user agreed and what they agreed to exactly. A screenshot might do that but might also not be sufficie

The GDPR gives authorities various ways to deal with corporations that are breaking the regulations. When a corporation is compliant and only has minor infractions, they will (most likely) write a sternly worded letter. But if you're c

On Chrome I can see that but I doubt Firefox would make that move. Plus, they won't remove the functionality to manually trust a cert (Business Users would complain).

by tscs37 8y ago
You can always manually trust certificates via various means, it's the basis for almost any corporate network, most browsers also offer a simply dialog to bypass certificate warnings.

End to End encrypted does not mean the messages have to be stored and retained encrypted and inaccessible. I imagine the responsible sysadmins have figured out something to follow retention laws.

IIRC from the german articles, Axel Springer wanted to pull up in front of the federal constitutional court and go for something in the direction of "adblockers prevent free press/journalism".

I'm more worried that they will eventually switch it off in favor of the new mobile site. There is no guarantee that this will keep working indefinitely.

If RCS is not supported, the metadata is stripped and it arrives as a normal SMS at the destination. It doesn't require support from the carrier AFAICT.

by tscs37 8y ago
RCS should be backwards compatible, so if the carrier is blocking it, the users simply see a normal SMS message.

How long is that gonna stay available for mobile users?

I also have zero liability for any unauthorized charges on my bank account via SEPA Debit. By definition it's the bank's money the moment I dispute it and vendors are required to put up a legal contact with full responsibility whe

Well, debit cards have strong protections here too. If someone uses a debit card or SEPA debit on my bank account (german), I have 6 weeks to report that to my bank and I'm out. The bank then has a week to get the money back of they&#x

I don't like paying with Credit Card. If a merchant or vendor abuses or looses the data, people can pull money from it. Debit is much safer since it requires me to explicitly authorize the vendor and abuse is heavily punished. I can al

Last I checked Mailgun still doesn't do SEPA Debit, correct? Cuz that is why I no-go'd them a while back. Using credit card instead of debit is incredibly annoying.

You can target ads in other ways, for example, by putting them on a certain website (see: Hackernews) or websites could allow some granularity by allowing individual sections separate ads (the Financial section of the NYT could show some Py

This isn't the first time Axel Voss has dumped out a proposal that would undermine how half the internet operates and make the other half open to a court case from the first half.

Start with an ORM, for 99% of projects that is the good first choice. Once you start growing and you can't solve your problems with the ORM or performance on the database starts to suck, start handcrafting where it hurts and gradually

Nothing about ads on the internet implies tracking. The most simplest solution is that newspapers host the ad on their own server as a .png or .jpg that gets shown to all visitors. It's tracking free and GDPR compliant.
