It is clear Trump now has another platform, after X , to control people in the US and feed them with disinformation. They supplement each other nicely with regard to age groups etc. If FB, WhatsApp, LinkedIn also tighten their "moderation" with regard to anti-trump sentiments, an Orwellian picture emerges.

[M]any consumers might not realize the privacy risks just by glancing at the flyer sent to them, according to Florian Schaub, associate professor at the University of Michigan School of Information.
"The privacy policy is very specific that we're going to track everything, including what you do in Incognito Windows. Previously anonymous data may now be identifiable. All those risks are not disclosed here," Schaub said, after reviewing a copy of the flyer.

The bureaucratic rigidness of the Italian government has taken it to a completely unnecessary conflict with US providers. With the poorly-planned Privacy Shield initiative, it entered a digital sovereignty conflict the country never prepared for. The appalling thing is that even the outspoken Mario Draghi didn't try to walk his talk. And now Cloudfare threatens to resist.

"What has not changed in 50 years is the fact we are still using centralized architectures, prone to government intrusion and privacy leaks. Maybe it is time to think about a “Post Cloud” era where information is distributed instead of centralized. Of course this raises questions of trust, cryptography, security and collaboration, but the technology to build such systems already exists. It is more of a question of policy and education than of technology."

I'm tired grandpa.
CashApp is going to start using your shopping, browsing, and card activity to show you personalized ads. The key wording is always, you can opt out of seeing personalized ads, but it does not say you can opt out of having that information collected.
I'm unbelievably tired of existing in any modern capacity also meaning you must gift the knowledge all of your actions.

#Sky's scaremongering is not going to work.
They simply need to drop the pricing (€52 a month on their 'Sky Signature' aka. Entertainment package €40 a month on Sky Sports)
And abolish the Saturday 3PM bollocks (in Ireland anyway) for Premier League games, and maybe people will pay for it then.
The wording on this is just laughable.
