I'm not a lawyer, but I bet one could poke three dozen holes in this plan from the first paragraph where the initial felony planning begins.

Yeah, like the shares being transfered under duress. It's not like that can't be undone. The only thing this would achieve is a bunch of prison time and possibly destruction if data.

Not to mention that modern-day IT systems are such a mess that you'd need a crazy amount if time to find and access them all.

This seems awfully complicated. A lot of applications will happily respect system proxy settings and connect to mitmproxy directly.

If the Web is freeware... I wonder what options remain for licenced online information.

Content gating behind login screens. Scraping content behind a login screen could constitute a contract violation and would give rise to a lawsuit independent of copyright.

If you have a website you have to write this in your Privacy Policy and most do.

Firewalls are a curious case. It is argued that the data is not collected but transmitted to the controller. Almost as if you get a letter with personal data and now have to deal with it.

Yes, it's a stretch. Not happy with it but I don't see any practical solution either...

AFAIK it's not enough to write it in your privacy policy. Art 21 of the GDPR makes this explicit:

> (4) At the latest at the time of the first communication with the data subject, the right referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2 shall be explicitly brought to the attention of the data subject and shall be presented clearly and separately from any other information.

I am not a lawyer, but as far as I can tell, there is no legal way to collect PII (including IP address) or place tracking identifiers on the user's device without at least informing the user explicitly under the GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive.

After reading the specs, this sounds like an awful lot of complexity for something that should be simple and low cost. The spec also seems to be very loosely defined, more like a recommendation than a spec. This means you'll likely have to integrate a library and that library will be the authoritative source of truth as far as the expected behavior is concerned.

> Plausible also only processes it for uniqueness and doesnt save it as is

That's exactly the point. Processing of personal data to identify a unique person.

Regarding firewalls and logs: It's argued that this is legitimate interest as it is stated in Recital 49 of the GDPR. So they got a free pass, for the better or worth.

> I think you might be permanently spreading fear

Don't get me wrong, I like the approach. But it's not a get out of GDPR free card.

Legitimate interest still requires the data subject to be informed under Art 13. Not sure how that would be accomplished without at least an info banner. (This goes for server logs too.)

Can this be used for something like Steam Deck? It would be nice for when you are running a game and needs to stop but will resume gameplay later.
janosd · 2 years ago
I'd say unlikely, games do a lot of work within graphics cards that are not as easily dumpable/restorable as memory.

Unreal Engine and Steam Audio may be worth looking into before you invest significant amounts of time into this.

As much as I love rasps (think I’ve got a dozen or so) I struggle to see their moat.

They certainly have an edge on ecosystem and software polish but it’s pretty slim.

I’ve got a mixed k8s cluster - half rasps half orange pi…and I’m having more issues on the rasp side.

Name recognition? You know exactly what you get, which isn't necessarily true for the bajilion clones out there. You know that if you buy an rPi, you can buy a replacement tomorrow and it will work the same. In a world where I can't even rebuy a laptop of the same make and model a few months later that's quite the advantage.
