Despite the two companies collaborating on an app based on HTML5, Microsoft's app is still breaking YouTube's terms of use.

"Microsoft has not made the browser upgrades necessary to enable a fully-featured YouTube experience, and has instead re-released a YouTube app that violates our Terms of Service - It has been disabled. We value our broad developer community and therefore ask everyone to adhere to the same guidelines"

My impression was Microsoft being arrogant. Besides, Windows 8/10 users could still access YT via web.
Front End Amsterdam to Hold JavaScript Conference in Former Church in Amsterdam
If I understand the GDPR correctly (and who does?), this article is very misleading. Specifically:

"If you don’t have an office in the EU, our laws can’t touch you. "

That's only true if you never travel to Europe. You could have a website that's in violation of GDPR, travel to Europe on vacation or business, and get arrested.
And be fined into oblivion.

Well, too bad, that business model has just become illegal in EU. Publishers will have to make do with old style banners or ads. They can still target ads using the content of the page, assuming readers of the article will be interested in the subject.

The issue is that for some reason amp usually seems to block the content from being displayed until the javascript loads, which strikes me as the exact opposite of what an "accelerated mobile page" should do (almost like it was designed by an advertising company wanting to discourage ad blockers...). You can bypass it by activating reader mode in your browser.

"So, using customer email addresses for marketing lists and not infringing any other way is a worth a 0.1% of revenue fine but our analysts project a 0.5% increase in revenue from our marketing list, so let's do it anyway".

They won't be. They will be first be notified and then fined if they refuse to comply.
On the positive side, it could also reduce product lock-in by increasing data portability. For example if I'm creating a social network startup, and users can export their data from Facebook in a parseable format, then it's trivial for me to offer an "import your data from Facebook" feature. The interesting question then becomes, could Facebook do anything about that? In the past they would be able to sue the startup for appropriating data that Facebook was granted an exclusive license to via TOS. Now it's not so clear. Where are the limits of my control of my own data?

I am reading through the complaints,

The first one: https://noyb.eu/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/complaint-android...

The User sets up a "new" (non Google) phone, and isn't given an option to decline consent to Googles ToS.

Now how does this work with a physical product? It needs to be compliant on the 25th of May 2018, but the version of Android may be old and not updated (given its Android). Even if there was an update waiting to resolve GDPR related issues, you would need to agree to the ToS to get that update, to enable opt-out?

In that point of view, it seems a rather unfair complaint. I havn't checked the other's yet, but I start to feel that perhaps these have been filed too early, without enough thought and examination, just to get headlines?
That's not always possible. A number of shared hosting services will automatically log IP addresses and do not provide a means to prevent logging.

Of course, in that situation an argument could be made that the web host is the data controller, but that won't stop people taking legal action against the website's operator.
Didn't that Microsoft app not show YouTube ads? Seems like a pretty different scenario when you're ripping another company off.

There is nothing in the post you are replying to that suggests this is any more of a footgun than genuinely similar cases.

Having fought that monstrosity very recently, I completely agree. The homepage of its site looks more like a marketing blurb than anything else, and everything about it has an unpleasant "enterprisey" feel to it. I don't care about YAML or "abstract network renderers" or whatever buzzword-compliance bingo it claims to support, I just want to configure one NIC for one static IP.

The fact that Windows' networking configuration is actually easier than on "modern Linux" should be a sign that something has gone horribly wrong.

Actually 'my business model depends on it' isn't a legitimate interest. That clause only applies when the service itself relies on it (a real-time maps service requiring location data, for example).
That just shows its user-unfriendliness further. Here's a more readable version of the output:

Every website you visit can elect not to store IP addresses. In fact if you had German users their IPs were already protected, it's just that nobody cared to comply with individual EU member's privacy laws until they combined their weight into GDPR: https://blog.philippklaus.de/2011/05/modify-apache-logging-t...

Not exactly in the indie film making scene (he's no Cassavetes, or Gus Van Sant or whoever is the indie equivalent today).

Bloom was an old British (BBC?) cameraman/video journalist, who came into web prominence with his "DSLR for video" posts and reviews.

For a while he/his was one of the few goto persons/websites for this niche. So his audience has indie film-makers, but also ad people, wedding shooters, and generally people interested in DSLRs and digital video for news/ads/wedding/documentary/fiction in general. Himself does various ads/documentary/tv gigs (e.g. he worked on CNN's travel series).

That said, content-wise he has jumped the shark the last 1-2 years.
You need all nodes in the path, not just exit nodes, to identify source. And traffic already HTTPSed, so controlling exit node won't help. So far I've never heard of state actors beating TOR. They usually exploit things like TOR browser vulnerabilities, etc.

TOR was developed to protect american spies, so it's exactly its purpose: to defend against state actors.
Touché.

When I calm down and think about it a bit, the original commenter's assertion that apple controls the app market is also flawed. I haven't checked the data lately myself, but I believe that most people use apps on android phones. (It's probably just that not many people on android like to PAY. Which can't really be said to be apple's fault.)

No, that's far from fucking clear, but appears to have been repeated over and over and over again.
Not sure why you're being downvoted. Google has different business model than Apple and expecting it to care about user experience in the same way simply doesn't make sense. And yes, they mostly care about data, because that's what they're good at - collecting data, analyzing it and turning it into profit.

Even in Europe (at least in Spain), mainstream journalists and pundits are generally misstating the effects and contents of GDPR.

I wish not-so-hot takes like this are more widely read, and along with sane enforcing, contribute to the sorely needed education on these topics of the general population.
The assumption you're making with most of your points is that, currently, data is only safe from governments/hackers because its not readily available to users, and for some reason it being not easily accessible by users means its safer (correct me if I'm reading what you're saying wrong).

I don't think making the data more available to users means it's now inherently less safe - actually, it could be argued that having all the data in one place makes it easier to protect ('Keep all your eggs in one basket, and put that basket in Fort Knox'). Additionally, if PII isn't stored securely enough, as it should, and that data gets breached, the company is at fault - again, which it should. Making these companies more liable incentivises them to take their security more seriously, which I think is good.

(I also trust my government, but that's a separate argument)
I'm in the UK atm. I just took a look at CNN.com, and uBlock is still blocking dozens of trackers there. I disabled it to see if I would get a GDPR consent popup, but all I saw was an accept cookies notification, nothing about the dozens of third party trackers on the site, other than some sparse information. There is no way to opt out of them, and there is only an “I accept” option on the accept cookies box. So CNN is not GDPR compliant, even though they've been running stories about it recently?

There is, but the way the Apple app store rules work is that if you are purchasing something for use in the current app, it must go through the IAP API and give Apple their cut. Purchases for things outside the app (like physical items) are fine.

The way this works with Amazon, is in the Amazon store app a user can buy ebooks/audiobooks (along with anything else Amazon sells), and then those books are sent to the Kindle app on iOS. There is no option to buy content directly in the Kindle app.

I also believe the apps cannot directly link to each other as that would circumvent the above.

EDIT

I just checked (it had been awhile) and it looks like you can no longer buy the books within the Amazon store app either, and can only get a sample.

You might be able to win your paypal dispute if there are emails from him indicating to you that he had made that payment amount. Upload all the emails relating to that payment from him. You could include one that shows he's making threats against you around the time he filed the dispute.

I had a client's wife dispute a payment through paypal because she didn't recognize the charge. I uploaded an email from him indicating he had sent me the paypal payment and they dismissed the dispute without input from him. (he said he'd just send me another payment if they reversed it)

I would offer to accept him cancelling the paypal dispute and take the $3500 (or even a lesser amount) and move on.

In the future don't keep working for clients if they aren't paying the full amount of your invoices and invoice them frequently so they don't owe you too much at one time.

If they are getting slow to pay you can get slow to provide services. Sometimes companies need time to get their cash flow caught up so that's understandable. But try to minimize the time/money you extend during those times.

Good luck. (Move On)

Article 4 Point 1 is:

Not only that, but AMP pages are only potentially perceived as 'fast' when you access them through google's search. When you do that all the AMP links' assets are pre-loaded in the background so it seems fast when you click through. But AMP pages themselves are just the same speed as anything else or slower when access without google's monopoly position pre-load.
But then that recycled material can not fill other demand for material so eventually you end up mining more nontheless. Also recycling itself it not free, depending on the quality you need you need to put in energy and resources (chemicals).

That's exactly the problem. Why would any merchant pay 10x, even 50x more for a card than they pay for cash?

If each customer had to pay extra depending on their method of payment — 0.2% for cash, 0.125% for EC, 2% for MasterCard, 7% for VISA — no one would use credit cards anymore. Especially for big purchases.

Reality is, as long as merchants can not give cash-only discounts, CC owners leech off of the cash payers.

> My feeling is that in the EU there is a different view of government: it's not a third adversarial entity.

That should be the de facto stance regarding government in democratic countries, in my opinion.

The government is a third party that intermediates, fundamentally, between:

* individuals/groups of individuals and other individuals/groups of individuals, all inside the same country

* itself and the governments of other countries

The first point is very important, a society of a big enough scale, in the absence of hierarchy invariably degenerates into an anarchy where the only law is the law of the jungle: the strongest survive. That's why we add this third party that can intervene for the weak. This third party can be corrupted by various interests, but the hope is that these interests balance themselves out.

And even a corrupt state is better than no state at all (or even a very weak state). Look at current day Somalia, Iraq post 2001, Libya post 2011.

Ok. What if Amazon customer buys a kindle ebook on Amazon.com and then reads it on iOS Kindle app? I don't imagine Apple gets a cut in that scenario, do they?

A comment here said that Valve was open to disabling buying in the app and they are still banned. Hmm.

I can see how Apple's position to get some cut is reasonable, but we are talking multiplatform here. Was Valve unwilling to give Apple any cut at all? Was Apple insisting on too big a cut? What's going on?
