      Thank god that at least they made them ask. Another thing I’m massively happy for is GDPR. I keep getting mails in my inbox for all sort of random accounts I don’t remember signing up for that I probably just checked out once and forgot about, asking me if they can keep my data, please, because if I don’t reply then they can’t, and they would REALLY REALLY LIKE TO C’MON FRIEND BE MY FRIEND

        EU: require consent over nonsensitive junk data that’s mostly for targeted advertising & isn’t strictly to safeguard against identity fraud

        Also EU: compel the risky disclosure of sensitive information for identification, propose rules to scan all your chats

        We can thank them for getting privacy entirely backward.
