  • Is this witchy or is this Facebook leaking?

  • No, the GDPR has a lot of benefits.

    I'm saying that the content companies could weaponise FoMO and say "you can't play with us any more, UK" then the government would probably have to pull back.

    And then the other places considering doing something similar would have to do the same. Before it becomes the new standard to have "age" gates.

  • I'm watching you, Dent

  • fuck that site

    Yeah. Might as well be a Batman comic for the purpose getting accurate news.

  • Ideally companies would just block the UK, like they did to the EU to avoid GDPR regulations.

    That would put other nations (and the EU) off doing this nonsense themselves.

    But it seems like the corporations have been brought to heel. Just when their usual attitudes would have come in handy.

  • Careful mate. Once they're done arresting grannies they'll be coming for you.

  • Absolutely yeah. We should never endorse using the likenesses of others or submitting fraudulent identification.

    It definitely would not be funny or help frustrate the privacy invasion that this is intended to be.

    Please, trust the masters. They know what's best for you.

  • "ChatGPT, write a tweet in the style of..."

    Em-dashes aren't definitive proof of LLM content, but competent satire is usually beyond the reach of the political class.

  • I wonder when he'll pull the old "soldiers in the room for an important vote" trick.

  • Gotta phrase it as "military aged males 'died' during a defensive/peacekeeping operation".

    Or just straight up call babies terrorists. Dealer's choice.

  • A lot of them were retired people, and a lot said they had been medics or military before they retired. So it's new demographics coming out on this one.

    The home secretary then came out and said some vague stuff about "there's stuff we can't tell you about. Just trust us bro, we're fighting evil with this"

  • A bloke at the pub told me

  • I didn't realise it disqualified him. Is that the same for all military roles?

    I've heard accounts from people talking about ADHD affecting their work when on active duty (like, literally on a patrol in Afghanistan).

    Obviously it's something I read on the internet, but I am curious.

  • The products I can find on my own. I just need an ad to tell me that the type of product exists (I'm aware that only monopolies would benefit from that kind of as).

    I'll be choosing the model/brand on merit. If anything the one being heavily advertised is going to be worse (or at least the cost of the ads is included in the price).

  • Probably someone connected to you has been searching for appliances.

    Often that's how they guess you're in the market.

    Or they might just know you got a raise, are more of an impulse buyer in August or that one of your machines is nearing a possible end of life date.

  • It's not about what they think you might like. It's about what they think they can convince you to buy (or at least change your mind about).

    It's never been about "improving your experience" to offer personalised ads.

  • I mean, the API is open.

    I've been operating MORE privately on here than I would have on a closed/limited API.

    This data was always going to end up harvested.

  • Not sure about wine. Haven't used it since like 2016.

    I'm running all my games in steam with proton. Not sure if that's connected at all.

  • Or it just happens overseas, where these laws don't apply (or can't be enforced).

    But I don't think it will happen. Too many countries are desperate to be "the AI country" that they'll risk burning whole industries to the ground to get it.
