🤯 #YouTube approved dozens of election disinformation ads ahead of the #India general election.
"We submitted 48 ads [...containing] content prohibited by YouTube’s #elections#misinformation policies, including false information around the election" like "changes to the voting age, instructions to vote by text message, and incitement to prevent certain groups from voting."
When an #EU user installs a third-party app store with #iOS 17.4 and travel outside the EU "for a longer period of time", that app store will stop working.
So they will stop getting updates. From the oh-we're-so-secure phone company. Seriously #WTF Apple.
And before you reply Oh they're just stealing from #LineageOS and also use an outdated #Bromite and there is still connections with Google servers, etc:
Yes, but the OS ships with an auto-updating app store, a free email address plus @nextcloud account, and a fully functioning @microg. This is what non-techies need.
@ramonita While German politicians (including @GrueneBundestag) solemnly repeat "Never Again Is Now" to each other in blind support of a murderous and illegal war, German police violently drags Jews off the street for exercising their right to free speech. It's sickening.
Of course #KULeuven clinical #pharmacology researcher Teodora Lalova-Spinks makes clear from the start that primary and secondary use of medical records under the proposed #EHDS is not the same regarding #privacy.
Looking forward to a deep-dive discussion at #PrivacyCamp24 comparing #healthdata regimes in the #EU and #UK and how (and if at all) they protect #patients' rights.
Can anyone recommend a managed #Nextcloud hosting provider for a 25-50 user instance including #CollaboraOffice and #Talk#HPB; ideally based in the EU?
#YlvaJohansson's department specifically targeted people in member states that had been critical of her proposal but excluded people who are likely to value #privacy.
Looks like @edri has hit a nerve: Commissioner #YlvaJohasson has responded on #Twitter claiming that #microtargeting people in carefully selected member states based on prohibited categories of personal data was "standard normal practice". 🤷♂️
