@cwebber meh I do anything to cheer yeh up?

@kfogel @evan for me the answer is the same for any group: let’s the people most impacted lead, and support them.

@dalias @mttaggart I’m saying the text of the GDPR is intentionally broad and could be read that way by regulators. Mozilla has more potential exposure than an average FOSS developer, which may be why they’re taking a conservative approach to that risk.

@dalias @mttaggart that’s really not relevant to the text of the regulation.

@dalias @mttaggart GDPR Art. 4: “‘controller’ means the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data….” App publishers are (imo reasonably) interpreting this to apply to apps that deal with personal info, because the app developer arguably “determines the purposes and means of the processing.”

@mttaggart not seeing what’s objectionable about the quoted section

@mttaggart as I read it, you give them a limited license to use that content as needed to do what you’re using Firefox to do. I.e. if you’re uploading an image to a website, you authorize them to do so as you directed.

@evan @ben I don’t know, CAN you? 👨🏻

@ben @evan have you been following @cwebber’s work on @spritely? I’m certain it’s the future of decentralized trust networks.

@cwebber quokka problems, precious?

Be cautious of any restaurant that doesn’t specify whose hands employees must wash.

@evan can you follow up with requests for proportions?

@evan @micheleann is your angel trying to fly away, or is that just a really tall tree?

Where have you gone, #JohnMastodon, our nation turns its lonely eyes to you, woo woo woo
