sverit,

Orange Box is GOAT, but what is that article? Just mentioning the games with barely any interesting backstories?

Linus Tech Tips (LTT) release investigation results on former accusations (x.com)

There were a series of accusations about our company last August from a former employee. Immediately following these accusations, LMG hired Roper Greyell - a large Vancouver-based law firm specializing in labor and employment law, to conduct a third-party investigation. Their website describes them as “one of the largest...

sverit,

Here is a good writeup how it started: knowyourmeme.com/…/gamers-nexus-vs-linus-tech-tip…

Relevant part is this:

On August 16th, 2023, ex-LTT employee Madison Suop posted a thread on X explaining her reasons for leaving Linus Tech Tips and the kind of workplace misconduct she purportedly experienced during her time there: x.com/suuuoppp/status/1691693740254228741

sverit,

Einfach mal den Link im Artikel klicken und lesen. Es geht darum, dass Amazon einseitig die Vertragsbedingungen geändert hat und das (wahrscheinlich) nicht rechtens ist.

Apple's Wifi router database: Surveilling the Masses with Wi-Fi-Based Positioning Systems (www.cs.umd.edu)

Apple’s huge database, which usually records the locations of Wi-Fi base stations to the nearest metre, has apparently been exploited without hindrance: With little effort, attackers are able to create a ‘global snapshot’ of all the location data of the WLANs recorded there.

So is this really only opt-out? If yes, that’s against the GDPR, which requires an active consent:

For example, as the GDPR requires that a controller must be able to demonstrate that valid consent was obtained, all presumed consents of which no references are kept will automatically be below the consent standard of the GDPR and will need to be renewed. Likewise as the GDPR requires a “statement or a clear affirmative action”, all presumed consents that were based on a more implied form of action by the data subject (e.g. a pre-ticked opt-in box) will also not be apt to the GDPR standard of consent.

Well, a number of countries will be forced out, simply because PSN is not available there. Especially the philipinos seem so be quite upset.

PSN is available in 69 countries around the world. (Source: www.playstation.com/country-selector/index.html)

right now there are (roughly) 190 independent countries in the world.

The whole of Africa (except for SA; thanks to u/ItzOnza), Egypt and even european countries like Belarus don’t have PSN.

The Baltics - states that are part of the european union - are also excluded.

These people can’t create accounts.
