Well, let's see how tue whole IT world weasels out of this one.

governorkeagan,

It’ll be interesting for sure! Specifically the big tech companies (looking at you Meta, Google, Microsoft)

“oh we can’t possibly understand that field, as there is no agreed industry standard for how to treat it” - Get out, you know exactly what it means.

Norgur,

Bein forced to accept this would make their whole dark pattern cookie bullshit useless, sooooo

Title in English, article in German… not great.

jlow,

Yeah, true. But maybe the perfect time to try the new translation feature in Firefox? ^__^

I don’t like or trust software translation. It’s often clunky, feels unnatural, and misses important nuance.

DarkThoughts,

Then use an addon that uses translation services like Google or DeepL? Or hire an actual translator if you feel that's also unacceptable.

radioactiveradio,

Or learn the language, by FOSS means ofc. Make sure to check the licence for each word and verify the GPG key.

Next question: How to get the whole EU to take this legal position?

DarkThoughts,

I could see it happen eventually. Would definitely be the best outcome for this whole consent banner madness.

The title is misleading. The article only talks about LinkedIn.

DarkThoughts,

It's called legal precedence.

Good luck enforcing it.

Nobody, in India's biggest data breach? Hacking gang claims to have stolen 815 million people's personal information

Is this for real? Those are very big numbers.

The data leak is of AADHAR database. Which is a proof of identity that is required by everyone to avail government services. It is even used for SIM registration and opening bank account.

Government has been recently trying to link Voter IDs to AADHAR. It is already linked to Tax Account called PAN.

It has been turned it to a surveillance tool and this leak can be huge if true.

Nobody,

Yikes. Thanks for the info.

radioactiveradio,

And you can’t get a job without the AADHAR either.

Won’t really matter if all those 815 million can barely make an income.

Devjavu,

So now instead of being incredibly poor, they will starve to death. How fun!

Mr_Blott, in India's biggest data breach? Hacking gang claims to have stolen 815 million people's personal information

Anecdotal, but last night I got half a dozen pings on my banking app asking me to authorise transactions for thousands of rupees 🤨

Had to cancel the card

India ≠ Privacy

That’s more than half of the Indian population. Catastrophic if true.

beta_tester, in How to stay safe on Strava
  1. Use osmand or opentracks instead. Opentracks is strava without (social) sharing
jlow,

Or Fitotrack, which has an even nicer dashboard (with horrible colors, unfortunately) to screenshot and send to friends to brag (not that I’d ever do that ^__^)

beta_tester,

Iirc opentracks works better with import/exports. Apart from that, both do their job.

lemann,

I switched to Osmand when my bike computer got stolen and tbf I prefer Osmand, especially with the widgets and stuff set up for the cycling profile

FutileRecipe,

Which OpenTracks? Google PlayStore has two.

beta_tester,

play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.dennisgu…

www.f-droid.org/en/…/de.dennisguse.opentracks/

Dashboard (map) for opentracks

play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.storchp.…

f-droid.org/…/de.storchp.opentracks.osmplugin/

Github page: github.com/OpenTracksApp/OpenTracks

And releases github.com/OpenTracksApp/OpenTracks/releases

But I can’t manage to add it to obtainium
