The official website mentions these documents, but for some reason doesn't let you view them, saying "It will be possible to request access to this document or download it within 48 hours".

Because the issue is due to a failure in the law. The failure of not enforcing the "do not track" setting from browsers that would avoid the need for these annoying pop-ups in the first place.


>What would some good examples of those be?

There is haproxy-protection, which I believe is the basis of Kiwiflare. Clients making new connections have to solve a proof-of-work challenge that take about 3 seconds of compute time.

"Most people" were never on Twitter to begin with. However its number of monthly active users have only grown since 2020.

Like everywhere it is mostly bots.

Look at HN frontpage, there used to be 1-2 Twitter post per day. Now it is barely per week. End even those are usually just from two accounts (Karpathy and Carmack).


Yeah, but that's just standard for Azure.


GDPR has a massive exploit where you can do whatever you want as long as you declare it "legitimate interest".


That must've escaped all of the legal teams of all the companies that have been fined. GDPR's biggest problem is its general lack of enforcement. Companies can still get away with just about anything because the overwhelming majority of violations are never investigated.


>TrueState unburdens analytics teams from the repetitive analysis and accelerates the delivery of high-impact solutions.

Ehh, that's pretty vague. How does it work?

>Request demo

Oh. Well how much is it?

>Request pricing

Oh never mind


It’s like the email scams that filter people out with bad spelling and obvious red flags. If someone makes it through those hurdles they’re probably a good prospect. You weren’t really thinking of buying it, were you?


I just hope they give us an option to buy a controller with the face buttons in the "Nintendo" order rather than the "Xbox" order. Like how the 8bitdo pro comes in two versions. The only console I actually still care about these days is the Switch/Switch 2, so it would be nice to not have the button placement suddenly reversed when switching between controllers.

This doesn't help with the actual button printing, but you can set any controller to use Nintendo layout in Steam input


Having lived in Europe and New Hampshire, I much prefer New Hampshire's solution to the problem. Just abolish sales tax! Its annoying for everyone involved. The state can get enough money from income tax. There's no need to double-dip.


No, its to make it more comfortable for citizens to support and fund the military industrial complex. Are people really this naive?
