It's rather the other way around, Word is not 1 to 1 compatible with LibreOffice Writer when it comes to document editing. Writer is far better on that aspect.

I’m not so sure about the GDPR status for the Fediverse, I don’t think there’s the law is prepared for “Jerry runs this for people, just for fun”. It’s very much “official organisation” or “money grabbing business” oriented. Someone should fund an actual lawyer to look into this and lay down the real requirements.

I'm working in the gdpr compiance field ;) Using a personnal device to monitor public space doesn't fall under the household exception, this solution even pre-dates the GDPR (https://curia.europa.eu/jcms/upload/docs/application/pdf/2014-12/cp140175en.pdf).

(the case-law is about camera fixed on a private house, but the logic easily translates in a private server grabbing public data).

but when legal compliance comes up, everybody just sticks their fingers in their ears and pretends not to hear you.

Just as you did ^^

No, Lemmy servers are not exempt from GDPR compliance. The household exemption (you are not subject to gdpr for private activities) only applies for purely personnal activities. As soon as a service is offered to someone else, the exemption is no more applicable.

That's one of the drawback about open-source projects, they are designed to fulfill a need (persistent storage & decentralised communication for Lemmy), and no one give a f*ck about legalities.

2 main reasons in my view:

• windows is the de facto standard for desktop ans users management. So each corp has at least one guy used to the interface to dofirst-level debug
• windows comes with support, not linux. So corps don't want to employe one Linux admin "just in case". That's the main reason I keep hearing from sysadmins I know

Awesome 🤩

However, not sure that stock market and memes get along very well....

Germany is shit for Internet connections...

Le Monde Diplo est déjà dans le turfu.

Plus sérieusement, graphique interessant. Je ne savais pas que le National Geographic était sous pavillon français.

It misses the most important information: why.

The CNIL (French privacy regulator) slapped Discord in October last year because they never deleted accounts (hi GDPR).

Since then, all tech companies are hurriedly designing a plan to mass delete inactive accounts.

If you are actually the owner of that specific one, get in touch with a specialized lawyer. Time for BIG money.

(Piracy go both ways, corporate can also infringe IP ;) )

TL;DR Both are crap and don't respect your choice when opting out. iOs is even (a tiny bit) worse than Android, as info of nearby devices are being also sent.

Tried the quiz. First question: an app request access to data, what do you do?

• allow all
• allow nothing and uninstall
• all strictly what is necessary (e.g. location for Uber)

Boy, first question and you already fuck up.. Never heard about the concept of address?

Commonly refered by the sailors as "one spouse in each port"
