European devs: Our laws will protect us!

Meanwhile, our laws:

Article 30

Traceability of traders

  1. Providers of online platforms allowing consumers to conclude distance contracts with traders shall ensure that traders can only use those online platforms to promote messages on or to offer products or services to consumers located in the Union if, prior to the use of their services for those purposes, they have obtained the following information, where applicable to the trader:

(a) the name, address, telephone number and email address of the trader;

(b) a copy of the identification document of the trader or any other electronic identification as defined by Article 3 of Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council (40);

Article 30, DSA

How is trader defined? Is it a developer that's selling apps or also one that's just providing it for free?

My job doesn't allow me to use a jailbroken/rooted device

So if/when this goes through I'll be switching to iOS.

Given the choice between two closed platforms, I'll pick the one that ostensibly says they're privacy focused instead of the one actively enshittifying their product.

Your job can say what phone you have? I don't get it

The moment my work says what phone I need is the moment I demand they provide a phone for me.

You should just get a cheap phone to use for work. No reason to have their software on your own device. That will undoubtedly be used for creepy purposes.

[-] filcuk@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 months ago

Work profiles exist for this reason. A completely separate environment that is isolated from the rest of the phone and can be turned on and off on demand.
Some manufacturers, like Samsung, make it difficult to access, but it's there.
