I think the difference it Facebook got caught and called out, whereas it appears here like Twitter identified this as an issue and Twitter decided to publicly disclose the privacy violation rather than sweeping it under the rug. Is disclosure of this sort of breach mandated by GDPR?
Kudos to you for a calm response to an angry question.

You may want to have a look at ORCHIDv2 which uses a subset of IPv6 to distribute cryptographic identifiers. I think you could use them for this purpose.

It's time to stop admitting that (if the name is so terrible) and re-brand or, more likely, come up with a better backronym meaning for your name.
Then the problem gets moved to encryption keys, which aren't part of the "open source".

They did call it a mistake, later in the text. Not appreciably different from an error, in my opinion.
That’s a good idea! On iOS I configured the Accessibility Shortcut to enable Smart Invert when I triple-click the home button, and it looks like it will work perfectly!
> safety and security purposes

I tried making a Twitter two months ago because I was having trouble with my phone and needed to access T-Mobile's social media-only support team.

Within five minutes of making the account, I was banned for "suspicious activity" and required to enter my phone number "for security purposes". But the only reason I made the account is because my phone wasn't working...

Emailed support and was told that they could not make an exception for me because I had broken some vague unnamed rule. Then I said the magic words, "This is clearly a ploy to collect phone numbers for data aggregation purposes," and within the next 24 hours my account was unlocked, accompanied by a very salty and accusatory email.
I did this for the KDE wikis {userbase,techbase,community}.kde.org, this was a lot harder than I first thought, because of the amount of user contributed content with white background, hardcoded color in the text.

Hey, as someone who works in non commercial, public health research, please consider using a license that doesn't penalise charities.
If you're using a dual license model, only rich organisations can use your software in security conscious industries like academic research (open sourcing our whole platform is far too expensive).
Please, please, pick a variant of AGPL that allows non commercial use.
That’s pretty insane. Hunting people down and killing them is the definition of danger to society.
Another way of saying “avoiding your weaknesses” is “playing to your strengths”.

I’m a horrible front end developer. I know the technology involved but I am not good at it and doubt that I will ever be good enough at it to command an above average salary. I’m very good at the backend from middleware down to infrastructure. Why would I focus on the front end? When I was a team lead, I contracted that out.

This is true for many areas of my personal life. I pay people to do things that I am not good at it using the money I make from doing what I am good at it.

The modern economy is all about specialization of labor.

I think the heart of this is the is/ought distinction.

When you have a right to free speech and then someone puts you in jail for exercising it, it isn't that you don't have the right, it's that your right is being infringed.

Calling it a privilege that you don't have any time someone is infringing on your rights would mean that nobody's rights could ever be infringed, since any time they were infringed it would merely mean that you didn't have them to begin with. But you do. People have human rights even when someone is violating them.
They're nuts.

Sadly, wrong.

Assuming 192.168.1.1 is your router, you can craft a webpage on the public internet to exploit that IP address, without javascript.

I find it both funny and sad that you're supporting whataboutism via a claim of double standard when that is exactly why whataboutism is a logical fallacy. Double standard has absolutely nothing to do with the merit of an argument or action. A thing can be both a double standard and an ethically sound action at the same time.
Reading this I imagined their management team sitting around a table discussing: "So the litigation happy people have sued us for billions, legislators refuse to protect us and insurance is not going to cover this at any affordable cost. Best move is to shut down power, that will avoid claims and make it known to Joe the Plumber that current policy is ridiculous." Other MT member: "But Bob, we're the power company, we can't turn off the power!" and the final conclusion being that best best chess move is to actually turn off the power.

I predict that they'll win and within the next few years local politicians are going to change something to ensure the power stays on.
The evidence is that they didn't support the original tweet that caused all the ruckus, and there hasn't been a flood of tweets or other expressions of support for HK by other NBA people since the NBA made the statement.
I'm sort of amazed your account was unlocked instead of you just being shown the door. Especially since, as a company policy, letting users like you through is likely to result in very little revenue for users. They're much better off just targeting the tech illiterate folk who can be easily swayed into clicking through ads.

I imagine some PM and engineering team on the marketing product realized that the phone number was available in the user's database entry, and so... why not expose it indirectly for marketing? It'll make a ton of money!

This is exactly why I am a huge fan of the "privacy by design" parts of GDPR and the fact that the regulation places a heavy emphasis on how the data is used in addition to who sees it. It has helped to crystallize the discussion about privacy as not just "what data" but "data + usage".

I like that engineers are increasingly required to think about not just what the data is but also how it's being used. When the act of connecting data sources has ethical impact, engineers can't be agnostic.

The comments here are overwhelmingly negative so far, so I'll say something positive: even if this comes rather late for Thunderbird, I appreciate that Mozilla chose to add this functionality. Any feature that makes PGP easier to use for the average person (especially better integration into a platform) is a win my book.
One definition of magic I've heard is the "application of hidden or unknown forces".

So, this gives compassion to prescientific pursuits and acknowledgement of psychological forces, which we still don't understand, that govern a wide range of contemporary rituals and designs.

Because there are many things that operate through what is probably best called magic. For instance, and this is a dumb example, architectural ornamentation. It has a huge effect on the "vibe" of a building or street -- but is essentially unexplainable. Sure, we can tell ourselves stories about why the ornamentation works... But come on, it's the part of design that is just magical.
I have a bit of a different take. I don't necessarily believe it's about suppressing votes from a demographic. I think this is just a classic example of government mismanagement. They create a Catch-22 style set of circumstances that create a big problem but don't care enough to fix it because there's no obvious downside to just saying "meh, fuck it" since they aren't in a competitive business and don't really risk losing customers. Sure, it's possible that some elected officials don't get re-elected but the people in charge of running these systems don't really face getting fired for doing a shit job here.

Also, it's not clear from your comment if the evil but logical act is the passing of the law or creating the system in which one is unable to prove they can vote once convicted of a felony. Which did you mean?

Those Espressif blobs are running on the same processor as the application/OS and are responsible for a lot more functionality than the typical radio firmware for a Broadcom/Qualcomm/Mediatek WiFi NIC that connects over PCIe. That firmware is also entirely different from the RF regulatory data I was talking about; the regulatory data should be in a ROM somewhere but the WiFi firmware generally needs to be stored alongside and updated in lockstep with the operating system's driver for the WiFi device.

We bulldozed past any reasonable hope of solving climate change by reducing quality of life.

dang - I read through all of your past posts from your link before writing this comment. Respectfully, I do not understand the note about ideological battle.

I typically post when I am reasonably informed about a topic and see representation for one viewpoint, but not the one I have. I also do this when existing comments are dominated by a single uniform perspective or feature one perspective repeated many times relative to others (groupthink). I view my postings in such situation as diversifying the information represented in a given discussion. Very commonly, I see these situations with single-viewpoint domination present themselves in topics that are 'political', and perhaps this is because the HN demographic (location, profession, and so on) is relatively homogeneous. And so I end up commenting in such discussions more often.

Additionally, I am less interested in some of the purely technical discussions (such as "why is framework X better than framework Y") and more in the economic/cultural/political discussions that take place here. Given time limitations, even though I may lurk on many different topics, I post on those few topics more often. Those discussions are inherently ideological in nature, and taking any position could be considered ideological. I don't understand why the litmus test for being a good HN citizen is "posting on several different topics" since that basically means one cannot participate or contribute without investing time significantly, or by artificially keeping up some balanced spread of contributions.

To bring things up a level - we all live our lives and contribute to broader society in specialized ways, since we all have different interests/values/experiences. So why require something more generalized and diffused by way of commenting?
This is not entirely correct, GDPR does not necessarily require consent, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Data_Protection_Regula...

However, you are right in saying that this violates the GDPR, because the data was collected for a different purpose, and using it for another reason like advertising is not allowed.

Donald Sterling bought the Clippers in 1981. At the time, he was a former trial lawyer that had made millions purchasing and selling high-end ultra-luxury apartment/condo buildings in West LA. (He used to run multiple ads in every issue of the LA Times.)

His forays into the low-income housing developments to which the racial discrimination lawsuits relate did not begin until some years after he had purchased the Clippers. His racism was not well known because the Internet didn't exist back then and he spent millions annually on self-promotion, including sizable annual donations to the NAACP.
