Safe frames are not the general solution that you make them out to be.

First, site owners have to actively choose to use safeframes. My personal opinion, just based on people I've spoken with about this, is that most businesses and individuals who run websites treat their ads as a black box and their security as an afterthought. This means any solution for security that isn't by-default and that non-technical site owners have to turn on themselves, with near total certainty, isn't going to be protecting users.

Plus, not all ad networks support it as of June 2017 [1]. In my view, it's less a solution than a "literally-crafted-by-the-ad-industry" [2] externalization of responsibility for users getting hacked due to poor network policing.

Mine says "You do not have any behaviors in your ad" preferences. https://i.imgur.com/giAxfiF.png

But interesting page. Looking at the "advertisers who have added your details to their targeting list" it again shows how bullshit this industry is:

* Playstation in 19 countries
* Musicians which I definitely don't listen to, like Keith Urban, Post Malone, Jack White, YBN Nahmir, and Ziggy Marley, whoever these people are.
* Pages like "Top Kickstarter Watches" and "Top Kickstarter Inventions"
* A bunch of restaurants that I've never been to, but are in the same complex that I used to live in (thanks whoever sold/'shared' my email, literally probably my former real estate agent)

Taking a remote job and moving to Oregon. I grew up in the mid-west and worked for a family-run real-estate business, it took a lot to leave that environment, but the housing crash of 2008 made it easier as it was a very real possibility that the company would go bankrupt.

I got a remote-job and since I could live anywhere I took the opportunity to also get away from Indiana and I haven't looked back since.
It's normal, no? They deploy IPv6 because they don't have enough IPv4 addresses. And since most servers in the world are not IPv6 ready and will never be for a long time, if you want to reach an IPv4 server you have to go through their CGNAT which may have a piss-poor performance.

I really wish RIPE could force ISPs to release the addresses they don't need :(
Interactive brokers... simple but sophisticated.
Thanks! This one's my pride and joy
I think the idea is that, since RH hasn't been acquired or gone public, they haven't yet "ended up" with a high valuation. It could all go away before the investors can get liquid (e.g., Theranos for a pathological example).

This is why it's not fun anymore. Seriously, go look at all that crap you have to learn AND understand AND debug, ETC...

The reason all this crap was "fun" before was because it was so damn easy. :(
Rust can meet those requirements, though there may be other ones that you didn’t mention it that would disqualify them. With similar techniques as the C, the smallest Rust executable ever produced was 151 bytes.

The CPU architecture is more likely a problem. And, as you say, the stuff that’s not purely a technical requirement. We’ll get there!
I work in the USA, as a sysad. The company I work for has a social media product.

We've have had European and African citizens who've signed up. And that was more than enough for us to discuss "How do we make our stuff comply with the GDPR?". If we ever considered in starting up in Europe, us ignoring the GDPR is tantamount to writing them off before even thinking of them.

We also do things the right way. Deletion requests aren't treated as "ignore kthxbai", but all data is zeroed out then nightly purged from the DB. And I really think, with how current society is slowly turning against orgs like facebook, the way we're approaching this is one avenue of right ways.

Keeping a reliable counter of meaningful interactions is hard without personal data to correlate unique users.

No, the GDPR does not actually link people to an IP address. The GDPR never even refers to an IP Address, and where it refers to an Internet address, it is clear it's referring to email addresses.

The ICO (furthermore) has given guidance that they don't think an IP address is uniquely identifying an individual, and have confirmed this to me on the phone.

Where you get into trouble is in transmitting your browser logs/activity to a third party who wants to keep them for their own purposes (e.g. Google). In this circumstance, you have to let people know that you've done this, and to transmit their preferences that you receive onward.
> personal information cannot be conceived as a mere economic asset

I wonder why not? Personal information is useless for most people, they give it away for free to the state institutions and the police wont even ask your consent. Some websites and services have found a way to make money off it, in exchange for free services etc. Why is this an ethically unacceptable proposition?
Market makers profit off the bid/ask, not exchanges.
About the suicide at the factory: everybody points finger at Apple, but the factory is owned and operated by Foxconn. I'm not saying that to defend Apple, but it's an important thing to keep in mind.
I honestly think this is very, very user dependent. Mainly because if Google's ad tech wasn't working, they wouldn't be making so much money....

You, I, and everyone else on this site don't represent the average user. Personally whenever I Google something out of curiosity as a one-off thing (e.g. "lyrics to Rasputin by Boney M" or "0-60 of a Golf GTI") I switch to in-cognito, just because I've noticed that Google isn't currently tracking stuff like that by IP. This way I don't get recommended Boney M videos in YouTube or adverts for cars I don't actually have an interest in elsewhere. And that's on top of uBlock, Disconnect, Privacy Badger, and a Pi-Hole on my home network. But I work in cyber security and I am in no way a "normal" internet user. Same with TV, I'm a cord-cutter with Plex running on a VPS: meanwhile everybody I know who doesn't work in tech just watches TV normally.

Pretty much everyone on this site saying "advertising doesn't work" is right that it probably isn't as effective for them because they've been taking counter-measures for years, but millions (possibly billions) of normal internet users do click on ads, or have their purchases influenced by ads.

I do agree with Patreon and Netflix, they're fantastic business models. Add Spotify to the mix too: although the renumeration they give to artists is laughable, it's a fantastic platform which has gotten me to actually pay for music for the first time in about a decade.
When you're premise is "the bible is true" and "god can do anything", then what's not to believe? Most Christians I grew up with don't even think about it, they just accept it all.
These are funny but only bad ideas. http://kickfailure.com has some bad ideas with spectacularly bad execution as well. And they're real. Truth is stranger than fiction.

it's not theoretically possible, due to the statistics of small numbers. You can resolve the nanotainer problem by collecting many of them, but by the time you can measure a statistical difference, you might as well have collected a large volume of blood in the first place.
If another company with facilities in the EU then buys the noncompliant company, could they enforce a judgement on the parent company?

If a noncompliant company is going through due diligence prior to being acquired, they be legally obligated to disclose that judgement? Even if they didn't, how hard would it be for an associate at a law firm to check public records about the company?
You totally don't have to do any of this to make this page work, I'm pretty sure all that js code is completely unnecessary...

The SNP had an introduction to them, and the delegate reported back exactly that: not trustworthy and not a good idea to work with.
Interactive brokers seems quite expensive, doesn't offer trading on swap, and has quite a few other downsides. I doubt that it's used by many serious institutional customers.
It's about maturity - trying many forms(creativity) and finding the forms that work(i.e. sell, bring search traffic) and reusing them over and over. The general process happens in many industries. and i don't think it will return to the wild creativity phase.

Chrome Dev Tools let you simulate shit internet connection (2G, slow 3G, fast 3G, etc.) and Google encourages to this for development for the reasons you've mentioned.
There was an Apple ][ game that did something similar. I think it might have been King's Quest. In the era when people used hole punchers to make flippy disks, if you accidentally put the game disk in your machine upside down, the game displayed upside down.

Today you can make any Mac's display turn upside down with a few clicks in System Preferences. Someone in my office may or may not make this happen on machines that haven't been properly logged out when someone goes on vacation.

(A quick Command-Option-8 is also good for some fun.)
Again, I don't completely disagree, and thank you for actually being willing to have a reasonable discussion. But it's not like I'm springing this question on people in an off-road or inappropriate way. Nationalism is literally the topic of conversation, and many people have expressed disagreement with downvotes if not slurs.

And this isn't a rare occurrence, it is fundamental ideology, apparently not up for discussion or negotiation. People who fundamentally disagree, which wouldn't be you, will not enter a discussion. Ironically, it is the same unthinking behavior that those they hate so much are known for. I'd call it extreme, but it isn't, it has absolutely taken over the mainstream psyche.

When people refuse to think any more, I think some concern and discussion is appropriate.
People in your category usually lack the motivation necessary to keep up to date on the most efficient techniques, and they'll put fewer hours in general into their craft. They'll typically produce less effective solutions as a result, because they don't know all the options and refuse to learn all relevant tools.

For a concrete example, I'm currently (hopefully for not too much longer) working at a large defense contractor with a lot of 20 year+ software developers who have never worked outside the company in an engineering capacity. Some have kept up to date, but many hang up their engineer hat the moment they walk out the door, and it shows in their work. They don't learn anything new that they aren't forced to, and they often don't care about code readability, maintainability, anything that wasn't taught in mid 90s. They don't know what continuous integration is, and they don't particularly care. They argue, sometimes successfully, against changes and infrastructure that would be no-brainers at any marginally competent software dev house. They think agile is a horrible idea because all they know is my company's half-assed, broken implementation of it. These are the people who are still writing bloated 500-line functions in new code, giving me blank looks when I mention refactoring at the code review, and approving said functions anyway. It's very hard to be fired unless you commit a security violation, so they'll keep happily churning out horrible code until they hit retirement. Then they dream of kicking their feet up in Florida (literally in one case) and doing nothing. Or so they claim. Hell they've been in the aerospace industry for over two decades, and in many cases I, the junior man, had to tell them who SpaceX and Blue Origin are and why they mattered to our industry (and possibly their jobs in the medium/long term). They simply do not care. They approach their job like they're making corn flakes on an assembly line, and our product is many times shitier than it should be as a result.

If you can't tell, their wilful mediocrity pisses me off. :P They're part of the reason I'm looking to leave, although my larger problem is with leadership, or lack thereof (imagine these guys getting promoted, where they can care even less about staying up to date). Not to paint the whole company too badly, there are good engineers/managers that I work with, and they're a welcome breath of fresh air when I do. Just far too few of them for my liking.

If your goal is to simply remain employable then fine, you're welcome to find all your fulfillment outside of work. But if your only motivation is the stick and there's never any carrot, the moment that stick goes away you're going to be passed. From the sound of it fear of unemployment is your only incentive. For the sake of your co-workers, I hope you never find an overly stable job.

Rather than speaking generally, let's discuss specific political movements; the following is just off the top of my head:

* Nationalism in the US: Based on white skin and, often, Christianity; it includes demonization of and state discrimination against Latinos, African-Americans, Muslims, Jews, and immigrants who are non-white and non-Christian - apparently anyone non-white and non-Christian - and also against the political left. It also includes militarism and an attack on democracy, including freedom of the press, the rule of law, and separation of powers.

* Nationalism in India includes state and individual-level discrimination against Muslims.

* Nationalism in Turkey includes a reduction in democracy and civil rights, oppression of Kurds, and a move toward militarism.

* Nationalism in France includes discrimination against Muslims and people without white skin, as exemplified by the National Front, and state level actions including laws discriminating against Muslims and, if the state of emergency continues, reduction in civil rights.

* Nationalism in Hungary includes discrimination against immigrants, attack on democracy, including separation of powers and the rule of law.

* Nationalism in Poland includes state-level discrimination against non-Catholics (based on limited reading), and a reduction in free speech by censoring discussion of Poland's role in the Holocaust, and anti-semitism.

* Nationalism in England includes demonization of and discrimination against immigrants and non-Whites, such as by UKIP.

* Nationalism in Germany includes demonization of and discrimination against immigrants.

* Nationalism in China includes demonization of Japanese and Americans, and a belief in the natural inferiority of other countries and, IIRC, non-Han in general. It also has included a move away from democracy, and toward international militarism

> Nationalism doesn't mean opposing anybody. It's belonging to community and working for it's greater good.

That's exactly what Hilter said, and many at the time believed, about his nationalistic policies. He was a man of peace, they insisted, until they invaded. They all make those claims, but that's not what they do or how it ever works out. Nationalism results in and comes from ethnic hatred, and ends in war, oppression and brutality. There's no mystery to it.
If their CGNAT would perform better, clients would not even notice a difference. I hardly doubt all that buisness clients (thinking of small non-IT buisinesses such as coffee shops) require native IPv4.

An ISP who cannot offer a proper IPv6+IPv4 internet access should not be refered to as an ISP. He supports IPv6<->IPv4 segregation, instead.
Maybe that’s true, but if the ML ad targeting industry disappears, several of those currently employed ML workers have little to no reason to exist.
I'm not convinced the journalists themselves are shorting anything (though I'd still like to know), but I don't think it's an accident that journalists are getting tips over silly minor crap like someone taking a well-earned vacation.

In other words, I really don't think this kind of press silliness is accidental and "random Tesla guy takes vacation" isn't usually a hot news story.
> His hypothesis is that maybe written history started before the evolution of what we now call consciousness and we witnessed it in written history.

That seems to fit with The Pharmacratic Inquisition from 2007:

"The Pharmacratic Inquisition is a provocative film from Gnostic Media that makes the argument that virtually all of the mythology, symbolism, and story of Jesus and related Christian traditions relate to two basic subjects: astrology and shamanism. For those unfamiliar with the evidence in support of this claim, this film can be truly eye opening and revolutionary." [1]

As well as The Holy Mushroom: Evidence of Mushrooms in Judeo-Christianity from 2008:

"A critical re-evaluation of the schism between John M. Allegro and R. Gordon Wasson over the theory on the entheogenic origins of Christianity presented in The Sacred Mushroom and the Cross" [2]

I'm not really surprised Toyota is mentioned as being involved in half the cases. Because they sell large numbers of hybrids and those have a much higher risk. The car can be "on" without the combustion engine running, so there is no sound to alert the driver that the car is still on. Then over time when the battery charge decreases the car will automatically start the engine to recharge.
Wow such a great way of letting me wrap my head around this, thanks.

I think eventually the only thing that will have any hope of forcing proper IPv6 adoption is some popular service being made available only over IPv6.

We can call it "IPv6walling."
Last week I was looking at an old CD-ROM of photos taken by a survey crew in the buildings around Ground Zero in the first few days after the attack.

It was startling to see how many messages various people had written in the thick dust that covered everything. The most common message was one word: "Revenge!"
This is great! I love it! I've been looking for an 'uncool' space to create little, text based personal website and it seems to be perfect.
underestimates or overestimates? There is advertising that doesn't require tracking. Simple brand-awareness-building and content-based advertising is pretty profitable without requiring tracking. For a website, the lack of personally-targeted ads may be offset by increasing the number of ad slots. I wonder if there is an estimate on how much value tracking adds.

There is no reason to expect that ad spending will drop in total, because ads never worked very well in any medium, but they worked well enough that it's worth investing in them. The portion of ad spending in TV has not changed significantly the past decades, what has happened is spending has shifted from newspapers to online. but the overall the volume keeps increasing in all media

I grew up as a huge Mitnick fan, and I still am. He was vilified and used as the poster boy for all computer hackers, phreakers, and the lot - unfairly I think. Takedown was one of the most dry and dull books I've ever read, and John Markoff should be ashamed of himself. Read Mitnick's book, Ghost in the Wires. So much better.

Purchase prices of London properties rose much faster than rent. That's coming to an end now, there's a finite supply of people who can or will throw silly money at it. It doesn't mean that prices will come down, but it does mean purchase prices won't grow so fast and relentless as it did the past two decades. Rents may rise, but mainly to close the significant gap between rents and mortgage payments and that will only happen as fast as people are willing to pay.
Nice, two pieces of technology which are always implemented incorrectly combined into a single standard.

This reads like you are intentionally trying to misunderstand. GDPR has two categories of user information: direct identifiers and indirect identifiers.

Direct identifiers are pieces of data that allow to target a person, or a very small group of persons from a single data point. Indirect identifiers are anything that you could use to build a marketing cohort.

Combining a few indirect identifiers allows to target very specific groups of people. Or, using the very examples you quoted:

- The tuple (bank account number, country) is enough to target an individual.

- The tuple (full name, zip code) is enough to target a very small group of individuals. By adding just one more element you can identify individuals.[ß]

Each one of the four data points counts as user information under GDPR. Doesn't matter whether they are direct or indirect.

Disclosure: I wear the DPO hat at Smarkets. As a gambling company we are legally required to know quite a lot about our customers.

ß: For the nitpicking armchair lawyers: unless you happen to have a gated community for John Smiths.

Hello from fellow Pole. Saw your page. Love the video :D.
Wow, I never knew I would need this in my life. Thank you!
I'm not sure that's true. People still have personal sites they use. Hell, I would argue that there are more ways for people to express themselves online now, and the raw number of people doing this is has massively increased.

"Commerical internet" existed 'back then' as well.
I'm with you, there are entire classes of technology I resent and avoid and it's getting worse as I get older.

My "smart TV" is a 4K Samsung with all it's smart features turned off connected to a PC running Xubuntu because that way I have control over it.

I don't own a single IoT thing, I have about 5 apps installed on my phone (4 of which are Chess related, 1 is my bank), I use the mobile web for everything else, if you don't have a usable web app I don't use your product.

I deliberately minimise the amount of technology to 'plain' computers running Linux because I understand those and feel in control.

No smart toasters for me.

That sounds plausible but does not explain why UI became so progressively horrible lately. I get that they may be developing corporate features I can't see, but why did they spend time on developing series of new UIs, each of them slower and crappier than the previous one?
