Sounds like you completely misunderstand what a police state is. A police state does not require the police to be concerned with upholding the law. In fact there is usually a departure from the rule of law in police…
Why would a bank take deposits at all then? I'm not saying you're wrong. It just seems like something is missing from the picture in your explanation. When I opened my bank account, I deposited say £5000 cash. What does…
From the perspective of a website developer, Google has a monopoly.
Because those features can involve uploading your browsing history to 3rd parties... does Microsoft check locally against malicious site lists, or does it upload every address you visit in order to tell you it's safe?
He's missing the point entirely. User interface programming is hard. And time-consuming. The discussion about client Vs server side is simply talking about where to shift this burden.
In most cases the king didn't fund his own infrastructure, he convinced the people to pay for it.
For one, it's easier than ever for the public to go all lynch mob-y on someone today and cut them off from society or otherwise ruin their life.
He lives in the Netherlands.
You're not a business systematically or regularly storing and processing personal data. Pretty sure GDPR doesn't stop you from e-mailing random people for personal reasons.
The manufacturer should not be giving such unrealistic instructions in the first place. Everyone damn well knows that people will treat this like full autopilot. And everyone damn well knows that if you give people the…
Given that embassies are not actually foreign soil, if the offense was bad enough, US authorities will simply storm the place and make it stop. But that's a drastic action that won't happen before many other options…
Without a government they can start to take this authority themselves in much the same way that local warlords do. Gradually by force, because they have power and you don't. A small / weak government can't do anything…
And the insufferable genius often produces shit code anyway since he has no concept of how to work together with other humans / write code for teams.
No, Google. Just no.
That's great if you're working as an actual freelancer. But most that I've seen don't get such freedoms. Another good test is, are you allowed to subcontract your work or not?
Honestly, most contracting developers are actually employees, and this position is just used as a way to skirt tax and labor laws. The abuse here isn't from the court, it's from devs and businesses. Devs don't care…
Not so sure about the US, but having seen how contacting developers are working in Canada and the UK, I would say that contracting devs are almost always acting as employees. In many tech companies you can't even tell…
On the contrary I think that without any regulation, Google and Facebook are able to completely entrench themselves and take advantage of us all in the process.
If your business model is based on something that will violate the GDPR, like streetlend selling user data to advertisers, then should you really be opening that business in the first place?
This is usually how laws work. They specify minimum and maximum punishments for various offenses. What part of this is a problem for you?
On the contrary, such companies don't deliver value. Their sole purpose is to extract value.
Can we get Twitch Vs AlphaGo? I would pay to watch that.
They shouldn't. But criminal penalties? Jail time? Are you kidding?
The fact that this is a criminal offense is what is right and truly fucked up.
So far I haven't had any problems with mine, purchased 4 months ago... knocks on wood
