The practical entropy of email addresses is indeed pretty small, lots of them are going to be first.last@company.example and a bunch more end in gmail.com or another popular provider.

If you can accept some level of false positives you could make the hash too narrow to be able to usefully reverse it. For example if only sixty people will ever subscribe or refuse to subscribe,a 24-bit hash is plenty to reject mistaken attempts to subscriber somebody who doesn't want in, but good luck guessing which GMail user is "2ca24b".

Another problem is, what if the email address changes hands - maybe even the whole email domain changed ownership. You probably need a way for people to change their minds, as that then also covers the case where the person behind the address changed.

First GDPR lawsuits filed seeking €7.6B against Facebook, WhatsApp, Android
I think that's the catch, and Google (or their lawyers) are trying to interpret it more broadly than it appears to be. I also took it as Youtube could use the videos for promoting the Youtube service, but other Alphabet properties don't fall under that ToS.

Then again I'm not a lawyer so I could be completely wrong. Hopefully this gets sorted and the guy gets properly compensated. It's not like Google can't afford it, and it would be positive publicity for them. Of course, it could also set a precedent and they would face lawsuits from other content creators, so I can understand their desire to fight it.

The checkbox or slider has not to be prechecked. You also have to provide a way to the user to withdraw his consent. And you have to keep an audit trail for the given consent.
The concept of amp is google trying to control the web.

Also, my understanding is that all amp pages have to load the required js from an amp project cdn, which is ultimately a google cdn.

Yeah, I can definitely agree that this is an annoyance if that's your workflow - personally I mostly stick to my phone. I might look into whether Chrome/Firefox tab syncing could do this for me, if I kept the hash fragment up-to-date. Feel free to raise any issues in the linked GitHub for requests.
>No targeting of EU residents = no GDPR liability.

I'm gonna have to disagree with that interpretation.

If I can use their services from within EU then they are providing services to EU residents regardless whether or they explicitly say that they want EU customers and thus are subject to GDPR.

This is quite obviously an error state, likely caused by an extension of yours. Have you tried using Amp in a fresh install of a different browser? Using different network settings?

That is implied in some of the e-mails - that is, they're asking you for explicit opt-in permission to keep mailing you. Mind you the old required 'unsubscribe' link was often adequate, but I don't mind this either.

I have limited time and it isn't my job to google for you. If you were saying "I disagree with the research" or "I have problems with the research" then that's interesting enough to be engaging, but "I am unaware of the research" means we'd just be having the same conversation I've had a dozen times before.

Debiasing Our Statistical Algorithms Down to Their Roots – InformationWeek
This is the crux of the problems with how companies are interpreting the GDPR. Every service I've seen with a privacy policy pop up within the last 24 hours has basically justified all of their current data collecting practices as being necessary for their business. The spirit of the GDPR is to improve privacy, not just make Terms of Service pages longer.

Is there Amazon Kindle app for iOS? If there is, isn't it the exact same type of app as Steam Link? Access your content library, buy more content.

If Apple lets Amazon do this (presumably because Amazon is too big to ignore) and won't let Steam do it (because Steam isn't big enough), then this feels more like a cartel than monopoly.
"You" here is the Data Controller, not the Subject.

Under the GDPR Amazon can't say "Oh, we told our customers we collected email addresses to send them stuff about their delivery, but now we've decided to use those to seed our Orbital Weapons Robots. So we'll just update our T&Cs and done, right?"

If they decide now they want email addresses for the Orbital Weapons Robots they're going to have to collect from scratch. Too bad, ask first.

People will actually visit the site... so they get traffic. They could then advertise to through more creative, less user-unfriendly ways (besides having giant ad networks that store tons of user data on each person, along with 20 different vendors’ trackers to make sure each department gets the same data about each user in a very slightly different way).
Considering that large sites with teams of lawyers are failing to follow the rules, how does a small site run by a few regular folks supposed to comply?
Agreed, it's a very deep rabbit hole. The 12" PowerBook G4 that I bought back in 2004 had the best keyboard I've ever used — I still have it and occasionally use it. But I've been trying to hunt down a desktop equivalent ever since (but with backlighting and TKL ANSI layout). Haven't succeeded so far. Still trying though.

Although my highest priority (by far) is low noise, I do prefer short travel/registration and a soft landing as well.

Prompted by your post, I did some more research and decided to upgrade(?) my gaming keyboard to a Logitech G Pro TKL https://www.logitechg.com/en-us/product/pro-gaming-keyboard. I haven't tried Romer-G switches so it will be interesting to see how they turn out.

Meanwhile, now that Corsair's exclusive rights to the Cherry MX Silent (Red) have expired, I'm hoping to see a lot more keyboards with that switch make their way into the market. The Corsair Strafe RGB was tempting, but the light spill from under the caps was far too gaudy and distracting for my liking.

Cherry MX Silent (Red) switches with landing pads and o-rings seems like a combination that would work well (for me) for gaming.

For the DB4 and daily driver usage, though, the hunt goes on. I'll keep using the wired Apple Keyboard until someone else comes up with a TKL clone.

>I'm sure somebody will try to claim it's "necessary" to their business to track people and sell everything they possibly can, and I expect European courts to decide that's laughable nonsense.

Who pays the verge for the reporting that you wish to read?

Is this verge reporting on this article made for free, by a volunteer, etc?

Or were they paid?

OK, so the Verge is a business, who has to make money.

How do they make money? Are you paying them to read this article? No?

So they sell advertisements to make money to show you content.

" I'm sure somebody will try to claim it's "necessary" to their business to track people and sell everything they possibly can"

In this case, tracking you through cookies for advertising purposes seems to be a "necessary" part of the verge, as it is literally a core aspect of the monetization strategy to offer free content in exchange for tracked advertising, as they explain in the pop-up.

No ads = no content. I can't see a European court claiming that Europeans have a right to free content in violation of the monetization strategy of the author. At the end of the day, verges servers are private servers and you do have to agree to their terms of use before connecting to their servers. In this case, the terms of use of connecting to a verge server for free articles is advertising tracking.

Good luck suing them, but what would be the end game? Ruin their business model?
As a European who has many time been asked to comply with the various sillinesses coming from US legislators, I must say there is some strong schadenfreude on this current event.

And for once, I think that the law that annoys everybody actually comes from a good intent (protecting users instead of profits)
> "The GDPR explicitly allows any data processing that is strictly necessary for the service - but using the data additionally for advertisement or to sell it on needs the users' free opt-in consent"

This is the key point. As the saying goes, on Facebook, you aren't the customer, you are the product.

The GDPR just changed this -- rightfully, in my opinion.
"large sites with business models developed around shady stuff GDPR is supposed to protect from" - there, FIFY.
Yeah, but the law of unintended consequences is sure to apply. The GDPR hits adtech companies fundamentally.
I am trying to think what the secondary consequences of GDPR are going to be.

If any user can see their data on any service than any government can quickly plug-in to access all user data on any service. This is like NSA Prism for everything.

If a user can export their data easily from any service, they can easily resell their own data for money to services that seek to monetize that data. They could even rent out their data by the day for model training using the right to delete.

Account takeovers by hackers will lead to much more severe data breaches, since all data on that user in the system is easily accessible.

The information apocalypse is made all that more easy because acount takeover + deep fakes + lyrebird plus all that easily accessible juicy data = impersonate anyone.

Data renting will create a way to monetize account takeover. The account takeover will include all possible information used to identify a person so how are the data brokers supposed to know it isn't you and how are you supposed to get your data back once it's out there getting monetized?
Do you have any proof that a smartphone is listening all the time and uploading such supposed audio samples anywhere?
> not on the bank (different companies!)

Not necessarily. Here in Latvia banks manage their own ATMs and whether you will have to pay a fee depends on your bank having a contract with the bank whose ATMs you're trying to use (usually there is no fee for taking money out of your bank's ATMs with a few exceptions, i.e. my bank has a 10% fee on withdrawals from credit cards, though most have debit cards anyway).

Surprise??? I’ve been basically tarred and feathered for years for suggesting that dear cult leaders {fill in the techtalitarian tech company of choice} are threats to competition and actual diversity and competition and even all of humanity. These tech companies are essentially the reincarnation of the same impulses for control and utopian psychosis that the socialists called Nazis, the Communists called Soviets, and the theocrats called Islam are. It’s essentially just repackaging and rebranding, because the product is still rotten under the package. People are even cheering them on just like the propagandized and bamboozled masses do and did at other times. Unfortunately, this time there will be no America to stop the authoritarian impulses from overrunning the free world, as America itself is succumbing to the infestation. Soon enough we will all experience what it is that true Americans died to prevent when we are tricked by our cure illusion into stopping our freedom meds and the manic authoritarianis that invariably ends in mass homicide of one form or another takes over.
How can you even prove that a client consented? Do you present a log of the request or something?
Jet Airways to set up office at Ozar airport
This makes no sense. Tracking for advertising is the business model of free content. That's how they pay for the "free" content you wish to consume without paying.

Do Europeans really think GDPR is a new way to steal internet content without having to pay? It seems like a hard block on all Europeans visiting websites like this would be better (and totally legal, these are private servers with a terms of use, accessing an american server in violation of the terms of use is an American felony) because if it is now illegal in Europe for Euro freeloaders to implicitly pay for the content they view, then why let the free people in?

Sounds like its time for a new library for sites that are available free worldwide where we switch to a subscription/pay/lockout only model for European customers. If you can't monetize on ads by law, then, time to start charging for access at the front door, right?

My understanding of Kindle and Audible on iOS is that Amazon does not _sell_ content on the iOS apps. You can only download/access your content.

Why are Linux skills a prerequisite for knowing AWS? Sure everything runs on Linux but the services themselves are managed and if you're going the serverless route or using Beanstalk you never need to know anything about Linux.

Eventually I want to learn Linux only because in AWS the Windows Tax is real for EC2 instances and they charge by the hour for instances instead of per second billing like they do for Linux - meaning you have to be real careful about autoscaling policies.
This is not "unintended consequences", it is explicitly anticipated by the law. Which is why people can and are suing. We'll see how it shakes out in the courts.

The thing is, Apple does allow this sort of thing. Look at apps like Google Play Movies. You can't buy or rent from within the app, so google doesn't get their cut - you can only buy and rent from google play movies on the website, thus bypassing Apple entirely.

You can then play that content within the iOS app. All in direct competition with iTunes.
Because they're not failing due to misunderstanding the law, they're getting sued because their 'compliance' to the GDPR is against the spirit of it, and in most cases is actually in direct violation of multiple clauses. They're trying to follow the letter of the law and remain in the grey areas - if a 'small site run by a few regular folks' isn't doing anything shady, and isn't being basically negligent with their users data, they will be fine.
Achievement and guilt help regulate those environments. A person who is successful because they live in a place that has plenty of food might work to bring food to places that don't in order to feel a sense of achievement. That would improve the environment of others. Likewise, someone destroying a place's food stores would damage that environment but guilt makes it less likely for that to happen. The exact things that cause feelings of achievement and guilt are defined by consensus (like you said, social construct). Also, if there's a genetic factor in how we come to that consensus, those genes are more likely to survive multiple iterations if the consensus results in more survivable environments, so there is substance in the sense that these rules are well tested and proven.
> Have you tried using Amp in a fresh install of a different browser?

Why on earth would I do that? I’m not trying to fix googles broken shit, I’m trying to read a fucking web page, and as it happens the original webpage loads just fine, and ridiculously fast.

So again? Why bother? With amp at all I mean. When a company says “we want to make pages load faster on mobile” and their first result is “ok just load up this extra javascript” you should realise that their stated goal is not their actual goal.

Web pages can be fast without amp, and load times can be measured. There is zero technical reason google needed to push amp on the world using worse search result rankings as the threat for non compliance.

So, tell me again how this is my fucking fault.
