Ah… terrorist, the magic word. That’s why you can’t have a SIM card which is not tied to your ID or passport in EU since 2015.
Terrorists actions allowing an state entity throwing 4000t of explosive on civils in a weekend… yep yep…
more seriously (though I wasn’t totally kidding), your non-tech relatives and friends are all on whatsapp/insta/messenger, good luck to move them.
That’s a lost fight, at least in my circle and in my circles’s circles. It was already difficult to move some of them to Signal and Telegram but even then, they kept using Whatsapp.
It should be managed at nation /European Union level, they should forbid this shit.
The more tricky and clicky it is, the more shitty the people behind are.
This is the lamest way (to try) to bypass rules and therefore pretty insulting to their audience. First contender: Arstechnica.com from Condé Nast**y** cult.
"Oh, the regulation say we must tell the users why we need cookies and provide how to opt out...
mmh but we need those shit, let's find a way to stay compliant but discourage the opt-out in the most sonOf*removed*Way."
Even, TheVerge and other from Vox Media sphere, which I thought were the nastiest, have changed it back to a simple **consent** or **do not consent** button.
ASstechnica likes to play the SJW, rights defensers, criticizes celebrieties or shitty on twitter but with their cookie maze consent shit containing a 100ish of advertisers (that you have to disable one bye one), they are litterally the worse BSiter ever.
So of course, I pass on but not without telling the fediverse how hypocrite this site/company is.
hero point +1 :P
