  1. Another day, another local small business automatically "opting" me into their marketing mailing list using an email address provided only for specific purposes.

    FFS. This time it was the veterinarian. This ain't allowed in Canada.

  2. Die Sicherheit der elektronischen Patientenakte (ePA) wird trotz hoher Bedrohungen unzureichend adressiert. Politisch gewollte Komplexität und PR dominieren über echte Problemlösungen. 👇

  3. Datenschutzbedenken bei neuer Foto-Suche
    Apple hat in iOS 18, iPadOS 18 und macOS Sequoia neue Funktionen für die Fotos-App eingeführt, die von vielen Nutzer:innen kritisch betrachtet werden. Die „Erweiterte visuelle Suche“, eine KI-gestützte Funktion zu

  4. Hey, @protonprivacy - just received your promotional email, something about winning a free lifetime subscription. Appears to be the real thing.

    Problem is, I was already unsubscribed from your "promotions & offers" and other promotional/marketing categories. Not cool, #spamming customers that have already opted out of that #junk.

    Filter your marketing stuff properly. This just pisses people off.

    > We will be using the `indexable` AP extension to check if the account approves public indexing, and if not, they will not be able to be added to a [Starter Kit]. If they do allow indexing, we will allow them to be included in your kit, but will send them a DM notifying them and will honor self-removal requests with a simple DM reply

    So you've automated some of the volunteer functions of community resources like Trunk? Nice one.

  6. A note on #Microsoft's "#Recall" feature, the #blowback its announcement caused due to it being a #security and #privacy disaster, and their #WalkItBack attempt by announcing it will, after all, be #OptIn, rather than #OptOut.

    Keep this in mind: Microsoft has not #earned your #trust. They made some strides starting in the mid-late oughts, but fell back into their previous ways starting some years ago.

    You can see this in their constant selling-the-customer-down-the-river.

  7. Scheint so, als ob auch #koelnMesse ein opt-out aus #responsibleDisclosure durchgeführt habe. Ab wann gilt eigentlich für alle Firmen in #Neuland ein #optIn? Es ist doch mittlerweile sehr offensichtlich, dass es in Deutschland wesentlich stressärmer ist, Fuck-Ups von Firmen irgendwo zu verkaufen oder einfach so anonym zu veröffentlichen, als diese der Firma mitzuteilen.

  8. #TFW a "#reputable" company decides that executing a transaction with them gives them never-ending permission to #spam you with #promotional #emails.

    TFW they provide no way to opt-out of what should have been opt-in in the first place, and don't even have a contact/support link on the site they're trying to entice you to visit.

    TFW you get sufficiently #pissed off to track down which 3rd-party #email #service they contract with, and #report their asses...

  9. CW: #PrivacyAndReach configuration #glitchsoc #OptIn #OptOut

    #OptIn and #OptOut are both #consent issues.

    Regardless, Opt-In and Opt-Out BOTH have a component called " YOU are forced to act on one or other, either way."

    This is part of the #FreeWebHostingCulture wars in I.T. industries as a legal component they put into the #TofS ( Terms of Service ) that touches all industries.

    Here is a a few screenshots oh my privacy and reach settings under the advanced interface.

    Many ways to limit engagement and keep the posts on and so far this is the settings exposed to me as an end user on @jerry's instance using glitch-soc. 📰👍👇⚠️👀👀

  10. While Europe hotly debates how to best implement a #privacy-respecting #optin or #optout #consent solution for #health data, #Germany simply ignores #patients rights altogether and forcibly stores personal data about all #breastimplants in a giant government database.

    Germany, the alleged land of privacy 🤷‍♂️

    Unpopular opinion. It's not the actual #Busing that's wrong, it's the #Weaponizing of the busing.

    When you move a group of people from Point A to Point B who have given #Informed #Consent and #OptIn to being moved, that's a #Service

    It's the #Lies and #Fraud that are the issue with most #Migrant busing.

    This is on a different #Axis from whether a #State has a #Republican or #Democrat as #Governor

  12. Ich lese mich gerade weiter in das Thema "ungewollte #Werbung" ein. In #Amsterdam sind sie da schon weiter: dort gibt es für die #PapierWerbung schon das #OptIn Verfahren. Damit darf Werbung nur zugestellt werden, wenn man mit "Ja" ausdrücklich zugestimmt hat. Unser #BMJV bekommt es seit Jahren nicht hin.
    Bitte zeichnet daher diese Petition und unterstützt die #DUH, dass das endlich realisiert wird, wenn ihr auch dafür seid, #Müll zu vermeiden. Danke.

  13. @betterplace wird mir immer unsympatischer.

    Favorisierung von #noPayPal, #Spender werden in Bestätigungsmail auf #noFacebook genötigt und #Newsletter #Tracking, meiner Erinnerung nach, ohne #OptIn:

    "Uns ist nämlich aufgefallen, dass du unseren Newsletter schon seit einiger Zeit nicht mehr gelesen hast."
