But I don't want to auto deny. I want my shopping carts to work. I want websites to save my login and preferences. I just don't want the pop-ups. So this extension is great.

Login, preferences, or shopping cart cookies (aka “functional cookies”) do not need consent. I never saw a banner that allowed me to disable them.

It needs to be noted that it's not the norm in France either. The court chose to send him to jail until the appeal because of the "exceptional gravity" of his behavior, which came to a surprise for many. He will most likely ask the courts to review the execution of the sentence until the appeal in the next few days.

85% of prison sentences of more than two years also carry “exécution provisoire”: https://www.justice.gouv.fr/sites/default/files/migrations/p... (page 2). Sentences of more than 2 years are not the norm though.

He already did.

> The Parliament acts as a co-legislator with equal legislative power in this process

The EU Parliament doesn't have equal legislative power. EU Commission proposes legislation, and the parliament can only accept or reject. Of course informally they can discuss with the Commission and let the Commission know what they would or would not pass.

> effectively representing the citizens while the Council represents the member states governments

This is true. But you maybe forgot another body, the EU Commission.

EU Council, Council of the EU: Represent member states

EU Commission: Represents the EU

EU Parliament: Represents the citizens

I guess US doesn't have a body like the EU Commission, that is not elected and that represents the interests of the "deep state".

The Commission is the executive branch, so maybe an equivalent would be the Executive Departments?

Not being subject to the UK and US surveillance laws seems as good an argument as any.

Though I'm not sure if the GDPR allows for data to be stationed in Switzerland. It's not EU but it is party to a lot of treaties so it's not out of the question.

Ironically it might become a safer place to station data if the EU manages to push through more surveillance decrees.

There is a treaty between the EU and Switzerland for this. Full list of countries here: https://commission.europa.eu/law/law-topic/data-protection/i...

So IP is considered personal information?
cccbbbaaa · 9 months ago
Yes, that is what case C-582/14 concluded.

The jury is out on ip address vs GDPR. Hashed IP address is not anonymous, nor is last digit anonymization anonymous.

So, let's not bother with it. I can say all IP address are located in earth and someone would be offended because now we are invading their privacy by knowing which planet they are from. GDPR is not clear on IP address or IP address derived metadata. There is no case law for it, nor acceptable methodology and everyone is speculating about what are the consequences of and it is mostly just opinions from IANALs. GDPR is astrology for non-enterprise companies.

There is, see C-582/14 which concludes that IP address, even dynamic, are personal data.

How exactly does that work? You need consent for server logs? Am I able to run fail2ban without consent?
cccbbbaaa · 9 months ago
No, logs don't require consent in that case, see recital 49.

- "Europe: 3"

It's worse than it looks: two of those were mini-rockets (Vega), and the Ariane 6 was an R&D test launch with no payload (mass simulator only).

The cubesats do not count as payloads?

Avionics is the area that is the least tolerant of radical redesigns in human interfaces. This FMC form factor has been around a long time. There are newer ACARS/FMC systems that have an actual QWERTY keyboard.

https://www.aviationtoday.com/2016/04/27/spectralux-launches...

Remember, also, that not all countries use QWERTY. France, one of the homes of Airbus, uses AZERTY. What should they do about their keyboards?

cccbbbaaa · a year ago
Use bépo, of course! More seriously, Airbus uses qwerty since at least the A380. This means that the A350 and the A330, two aircrafts that share a type rating, do not use the same layout.
