"*hey guys what's going on in this thread*"
—Spirit Hellcopter as Attack Helicopter, *r/Gunpla: The Transphobia Hysteria*

## The Transphobia Hysteria

Shortly after issues with [REDACTED], Attack Helicopter took over Hanbei Takenaka's account through unknown means. It is possible not even AC itself knew how this came to be, judging by their apparent confusion.

## Shin Ark

Three days after AC's arrival, Ark acquired far too much power; absorbing characteristics from Eph, IG and Slushy. AC contacted the CIA, and it was decided that it would take on Ark, for the good of humanity. Tragically, however, it failed, thus becoming temporarily known as "Destroyed Helicopter".

## Rebirth as Spirit Hellcopter and Ark's defeat

A while after AC's apparent death, it called to lotto for help; it had been reborn as Spirit Hellcopter. Rallying lotto to fight (against his will and better judgment), lotto finally decided ot help. This proved crucial, as after a swift colony drop, Ark's evil was defeated. Its mission complete, Hellcopter returned to Hell, thus allowing Hanbei to return to the group.

Freddy

Freddy is a man with a churro instead of a penis. Some wonder if it's a genetic anomaly caused by his Mexican heritage. Others speculate that it was the result of a freak accident from his time at the bakery. Most believe he merely stuck his microdick inside a real churro. Despite these disagreements, everyone agrees on one thing: this man should not be dropping his pants in public.

In TYOOL 2016, Freddy developed major kidney stones. He eventually passed one of these stones. Initial studies found that it was formed around a beam saber tip that broke off inside his penis and traveled up into his kidneys, in essence creating the world's worst pearl. Shortly after it was discovered that the stone itself was crystallized Plavsky, Freddy received a late-night visit from a group calling themselves "Those Gundam Guys," or TGG. They told him that they had all passed Plavsky stones and that it was Freddy's obligation to join them. After he was promised free pizza, Freddy agreed and climbed into their unmarked white van. Every month after that point he joined them in their drunken orgies, known colloquially as "build gatherings," where they would collect their stones together and pray to git gud at gunpla.

In early 2017, Freddy learned that more kidney stones had formed and told TGG. After a week of silence, they finally revealed that this second Plavsky stone was foretold by prophesy. On its passing, it would trigger a cataclysmic event known as the Pissening and start the awakening of an ancient evil. Were this evil allowed to fully wake, it would consume the world in stickers and nubs and nobody would ever be gud at gunpla again. They told Freddy to contain the stone as long as possible while they searched for an ancient knife which would eventually reappear and allow them to seal the evil forever. It it currently unknown whether or not this knife has surfaced.
Location data

Location data is the information data that's on a mobile device such as a smartphone or tablet. This information provides the geographical position of the device of an user. Most users aren't aware of this option and that it could be stop by ad blockers or just turning off your location settings on your phone. It records the latitude, longitude, the direction of travel in which the user is going, and the exact time the information was recorded.

But is giving up our privacy OK?

Many user don't take the time to understand application privacy settings and they can mostly reveal their location to strangers. In today's day in age the one's at most risk are little children that have mobile devices. Most children just accept the terms and agreement on most social media sites and think that whenever they post, only their friends can see. Some apps require a location data on to perform most effectively. For instance, in order to use the GPS on your phone, users must allow their location to be recorded. Most weather app would like to know where users are in order to give them the best accurate weather forecast. Instagram reveals your location if your mobile device is "geo-tagging" your photos. All of which benefit everyone but the user. But those are just some of the instances because most apps companies say they only collect geolocation data after

getting consent from users but users never know their giving consent. Good thing is there are ways to turn off your location data from your devices settings or just turn your best to disclose any info for your own protection.
Assblast of the Century

> "*I have a low tolerance for bullshit.*"
>
>

> - Elphelt's immortalized quote
>
>

The moment that defined a generation.

## The Setup

Mai, Eph, Arkanoid, Xeno and Elphelt were discussing kits when Ark made a misspelling of the Woundwort's name. Elph jokingly corrected him, calling him a fat cunt; he committed a great mistake, however, by following it up with "i feel all tingly whenever i say cunt", perhaps in an attempt to make it more obvious that his previous statement was sent in a lighthearted tone.

## The Assblast

Xeno, ever a bantzlord, saw the opportunity created by the naive Elph. He replied with a brutal "Probably because you'll never see one", implying many things about Elph in one fell swoop. Instead of bantzing back, however, Elph's fatal mistake was to take it seriously; instead of playing along, he went on the defensive, proving Xeno's playful jab to be true. He then made up an excuse about class to leave the chat and lick his rear wounds from the tremendous butthurt he went through.

## Aftermath & Legacy

After this tremendous blow to his ego, Elph proceeded to stay away from the chat for a while. Mega tried to go the respectful way and talk to him, but he was just generally unpleasant; when he did return for further statements, he fished for pity with far-fetched stories about how all his friends robbed him and his girlfriend left him (ironic, considering his main defense against the initial assblast was that he had a girlfriend). Eventually, Elph left the chat all of his own, but the legacy of this stupendous event lived on.

As of the writing of this article, the event has been referenced over 55 times by the chat, complete with artistic interpretations and stories of this immortal tale. May this incredible happening live on forever.

That shitposter who isn't Eph

Patrick Power

PP

lobbo

Lotto77102 is a serial shitposter and hardcore feddiefag hailing from the hole formerly known as Canberra. Being an Aussie his only purpose in the chat is to shit in it and yell at any Zeonfags that come in. He also harbours a severe hatred for some birds, such as Cockatoos.

He is currently unemployed but seeks to gain employment in the Gunpla industry. His soul burns with the bright flame of Gunpla.

## Dealing with him

The easiest way to get him to leave is to post birds like Cockatoos or tell him that it's 3AM and he really needs to stop shitposting and sleep. Another, more effective (but more likely to provoke him) method is to tell him that Zeon was right and that their mobile suits have better asses.

Information Data

## How is your Information obtained?

What do most people think when the word Social Media comes up? Most people
think that it helps them meet and communicate with people all around the world.
Others may think social media is a channel that gives them a chance to send and
receive information. But what do these social media sites actually do with our
information privacy and how do they obtained it. All information posted on social media
such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and forums are up for grasp..

Jules Polonetsky, director and co-chair of the Future of Privacy Forum, said online users have no clue that a comment they made
on a blog is being added to a database for some unknown use.

Researchers found that most sites leak people's private information to a
third-party tracking sites. This information allows third-party sites to
connect the records they received from user's browsing behavior with their
profiles on social sites. Most mobile social networks track a user's geographic
through Facebook messages and through Instagram photos. Study also shows
enabling social media sites to track you even enables third-party sites to
continue to track a user's location even when a phone being unused or used for
other applications. So, a person turning on their location data can be tracked by people who aren't even their friends. Most victims
to this diploma are teens who just don't know as much as they should about the
dangers of their privacy being public. This danger allows for random predators
to stalk people and something worse can happen such as hacking and identity theft.
Ad blocking

Without some of the blocker tools or Ad block on social media will have their way with your information data. These
sites already know how their user behave, which includes which things you
search, stories you click on or even which status you like the most. For instance Facebook has a platform called Atlas . Atlas will let advertisers access social media sites like Facebook's data about
its users track users on non-Facebook sites and apps. So from the data
collected on a users Facebook's account is used against people even if it has
nothing to do with Facebook. This is called "people-based marketing". This is very similar to the way Google tracks users from things searched to reach a wide array of sites with ads. When using a site that
has Atlas server ads, a user will be giving up more information then they would
on Facebook. But Atlas doesn't share their info the same way Facebook does with
them. Users information is always being share somehow in order to make money.
Even though these social media sites are free of use, these sites sell your information to all other sites your go on.
Social media mining

Social media mining is social sites way of representing and analyzing user information and certain trends from

social media data. This requires data analysts and automated software programs to push through user information in order to discern data patterns and trends. These patterns and trends interest companies and

governments to design strategies and introduce new programs. Social media mining develop algorithms that allow investigating of massive files of data. Social media mining is based on theories from sociology and social network analysis. Social media mining help corporations to find out about key populations of interest depending on the organization which apply to potential customers, citizens and clients.

European Data Protection

Under EU law, personal data can only be gathered legally under strict conditions, for a legitimate purpose. Furthermore, persons or organizations which collect and manage your personal information must protect it from misuse and must respect certain rights of the data owners which are guaranteed by EU law.

Every day within the EU, businesses, public authorities and individuals transfer vast amounts of personal data across borders. Conflicting data protection rules in different countries would disrupt international exchanges. Individuals might also be unwilling to transfer personal data abroad if they were uncertain about the level of protection in other countries.

Therefore, common EU rules have been established to ensure that your personal data enjoys a high standard of protection everywhere in the EU. You have the right to complain and obtain redress if your data is misused anywhere within the EU.

The EU's Data Protection Directive also foresees specific rules for the transfer of personal data outside the EU to ensure the best possible protection of your data when it is exported abroad.

Data Tracking

Internet users' privacy and data are often at risk. Companies online will often track Internet users in order to target advertisements to them and provide them with other data that's often unwanted. Users, however, do have a way to prevent themselves from being tracked and from seeing unwanted content through privacy trackers and ad-blockers. The way this software works now is clear, but the future for this software may not look so bright, for users or advertisers.

In 2009, a feature known as "Do Not Track" was implemented into most web browsers. The purpose of this feature was, simply, to prevent websites from tracking users if the user didn't want them to. However, the feature was poorly implemented. Specifically, there was no real enforcement to the feature, and most websites and companies didn't really want to abide by it. This feature is still available, but be aware that it's not the best method to stop anyone from tracking you, and using an ad-blocker or a privacy tracker would be a better choice. (Leswing, 2014)

Third Party Marketers

Social Media is extremely important to companies. But most of them don't have time to build their own followers so they hire third party marketers to track everything users do. These third party marketers receive users information from social media sites. But what info do they really get about users? Companies record and then resell user usernames, website addresses, hometown, interest and how many followers people have. Companies also collect posts, comments, likes and shares. This invading the privacy of people because most people want to do is share and connect with friends but instead personal information is sold to data miners.

Most companies lie say that they only collect information that it post publicly but end up getting the private information. But there are ways in order to install plugins or blocking tools in order to prevent information to be passed along. Third party companies and social sites are to the only ones benefiting from this while a person that did something looking for a job may not get it because of something he did years pier. All in all these companies have access to information they shouldn't have and getting for it.

Asia Pacific Data Protection

**Singapore**

Singapore law is commercial flexible and business friendly. Prior to 2012, the law did not have over compensating legislation on data protection. During that year, the Singapore Parliament passed their Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA). The Personal Data Protection Act as two primary aspirations, 1) to enhance an individual’s control over their personal data, defined it as “information about an identified or identifiable individual” and 2) to enhance Singapore’s competitiveness and strengthen its position as a trusted business hub. The Personal Data Protection Act does not reference a fundamental right of privacy.

The PDPA only takes the high-level approach and leaves the detailed rulemaking to sector-specific efforts by the industry’s regulatory agencies. It also addresses the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information, the transfer of personal data outside of Singapore, the protection and retention of personal data, the right to access and correct personal information, and sanctions and enforcement mechanisms. It provides the authority to fine organizations. The fine amount does not exceed $1 million for rule violations. It gives the private right of action for people suffering loss or damage resulting from a violation of the PDPA.

**Hong Kong**

Hong Kong's Legislative Council amended their own main data protection regulation called The Personal Data Ordinance. It was developed in June 2012 and remained largely unchanged since its adoption in 1997.  Like the Singapore’s PDPA, the ordinance sets forth principles related to, 1) the purpose and manner of collection of personal data, 2) the accuracy and retention of personal data, 3) the use of personal data, 4) the security of personal data, 5) information that should be made generally available, and 6) access to personal data.  Although the ordinance prohibits the transfer of personal data outside of Hong Kong except in specified circumstances, these cross-border transfer rules are not yet in force.

 The 2012 amendment drastically increases penalties and introduces new offenses particularly focused on direct marketing and unauthorized disclosure of personal data.  Malicious disclosure of personal data without consent, for example, now carries a maximum penalty of up to $1 million and imprisonment for up to five years.  The amendment also enhances the authority of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data and introduces a new scheme whereby the commissioner may provide legal assistance to individuals.
