The Google Fonts case was decided based on the transmission of the full IP address in a jurisdiction (Germany) where there are ways to identify a user by means of that address. CNIL's press release follows a decision by…
Strictly necessary cookies for a service the user explicitly requested. And, importantly, this is true even if no personal data is involved and the process is therefore not covered by GDPR at all -- the cookie clause of…
You're making the mistake of thinking that the cookie consent requirements are somehow a consequence of GDPR. The cookie consent requirements exist separately from and additionally to GDPR as a consequence of the…
It is not true that "functional" cookies are generally exempt from the consent requirement. What is concretely exempt are necessary cookies for a service that the user explicitly requested. This is not the case for…
The website tried to rely on legitimate interest as the legal basis for processing the data, and that precisely requires a balancing test between the interests of the website host and the interests of the data subject.…
A MAC of a message m can only be computed with the knowledge of a key K. Specifically, with a cryptographic hash function h, HMAC(K, m) = h(K + a || h(K + b || m)), where + is addition mod 2 (xor), || is concatenation…
p^μ is the μ-th component of the vector p, and in an equation p^μ = m u^μ, μ is to be taken as a free variable, i.e. the equation is true for every μ. In relativity, Greek indices are taken to range over time and the…
It may be forgivable to use dynamic mass in an article written for laymen and using a simple model of the atom, but I feel I should mention that the concept of objects changing mass depending on the reference frame is a…
This is what 23andMe said about that person's genome: "Has two mutations linked to limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. A person with two of these mutations typically has limb-girdle muscular dystrophy." Of course this not a…
This reminds me of a blog post in German [1] by a person who due to a software bug had been falsely diagnosed by 23andMe with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. (Fortunately, he was able to identify that it was a…
The linked image is comparing the announcement of Bergoglio's election to Wojtyła's funeral procession: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/innovations/post/aaf1067...
According to their latest election manifesto (https://wiki.piratenpartei.de/Bundestagswahl_2009/Wahlprogra...) their main points are: * legalisation of non-commercial copying * prohibition of DRM technologies * right to…
Unfortuantely, many common words seem to be filtered by the API. Some however are not, and they show a common growth pattern: http://hntrends.jerodsanto.net/?q=what%2C+you%2C+here
Obviously Assange (et al.) didn't ask anyone if they could leak sensitive data -- and perhaps they should have (but how exactly would that have gone do you expect?) -- but I believe Assange is acting on this above…
I've seen it on Vista, 7 and on XP once IPv6 is enabled. Concerning sources, http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Search/en-GB?query=rfc%2... turns up a few articles.
It's quite silly that the author doesn't know this, but the feature he requests exists already and has existed for 10 years -- Privacy Extesions for SLAAC in IPv6 (RFC3041). It's even enabled by default on Windows.
