  Excellent article. That’s why I use OSS first and foremost as they don’t have the incentive to bring in € instead they are more focused on a quality product.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reminder that Jagex Privacy Policy is Opt Out - Link in Description⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Under GDPR this kind of data collection and sharing HAS to be opt-in i.e. with an informed consent. You can’t just bury it in your TOS and/or privacy policy. The user has to be explicitly shown what they are collection, on what basis they are doing it and how they are using it, then give the user the choice to accept and decline that, and they have to respect that decision.

  There’s quite a huge domino effect in the food chain if we would cause mass extinction to mosquitoes as they are the food for many species of birds which are then food for the next thing and so on.

  Currently EEA consists of the EU states + some other European countries.

  It’s good to live in the EU where such terms don’t apply.

  If I read it correctly the “fuck off” level refers to some proprietary app for the selected login. The other two are standard code app and yubikey.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The fall of Firefox: Mozilla's once-popular web browser slides into irrelevance⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s Firefox’s fault not the plugins. They don’t allow any plugin to run in internal pages.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Locked out - Google's absurd security measures won't log me in⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Google is lying to you. They don’t want your phone number to “verify it’s you”. They want your phone number because it’s an effective measure against bot accounts.

  There you’re correct that they are lying and don’t want the number to verify. They want it so they can link the profile they have to an actual person. That’ll make the profile more valuable to them. Better tracking etc.
