Happy Monday, got this gem from a UK org. The subject line was "GDPR request". I think it sums up this particular shitshow perfectly tbh. "we have processed your GDPR request and are now sending your deleted information to someone you do not know as confirmation we have deleted you" #gdpr #privacy

Ok, if you are particularly sensitive to the effects of irony, I suggest you take a seat before reading further. In what is perhaps the most perfect encapsulation of everything that this experiment has shown so far, last night, deleted-user.com received over 400 emails from the same organization. This was an EU based tech firm. The purpose of those emails? They were from the company's legal team, advising users of updated terms and conditions, and the first update was: "Data protection: we added language explaining how we handle personal data under the GDPR" #infosec #gdpr

@evawolfangel@chaos.social I wish they'd get serious #GDPR fines and be forced to reimburse everyone's costs and damages to change these and the harm caused by said #DataBreach. Cuz #LackOfAccountability & #LackOfConsequences embolden companies to not take #ITsec & #InfoSec serious…

GDPR, NIS2, and the EU AI Act overlap — but most organisations still manage them in silos. The IAPP's 2024 Digital Governance Report calls this the "analog" maturity level. It creates blind spots, duplication, and slow incident response. Our new article: why 2026 is the inflection point, and three practical steps toward integrated governance. https://readmodel.com/blog/article.php?slug=digital-governance-beyond-gdpr #DigitalGovernance #GDPR #NIS2 #readmodel #locaverdi

EU AI Act deadline: August 2, 2026. Four months away. If your team uses ChatGPT, Copilot, or AI features inside your existing tools, you're a "deployer" under the Act. That comes with real documentation obligations. Our new guide for SMBs: inventory AI services, classify risk, document human oversight, integrate with your ROPA. Practical, proportionate, built on the GDPR foundation you already have. https://readmodel.com/blog/article.php?slug=ai-governance-guide #EUAIAct #GDPR

In case people wanted a 2nd chance to object to a compulsory user account age recording + reporting law (the only people who objected in #California that I have found being only interested in 'gratis' free software on the Google and Apple Stores), #Colorado has a bill going through its state legislature right now. It is much the same text, which seems on course to be model legislation, as #California's, and so will also apply to 'operating system's on 'general purpose computing device's that have 'software application's (package managers) with 'publicly available internet website's that 'facilitate the download of applications from third-party developers' . The sponsors of the bill are (state) senators Matt Ball & Larry Liston, and representatives Amy Paschal & Naquetta Ricks. It has already passed the committee stage and third senate reading. https://mastodonapp.uk/@JdeBP/116174134208480252 https://leg.colorado.gov/bills/SB26-051 @nileane@nileane.fr @RunxiYu@social.treehouse.systems #USLaw #CaliforniaLaw #ColoradoLaw #FreeSoftware #GDPR #Unix

@ariadne@social.treehouse.systems It concerns #AlpineLinux the same as it concerns every other Linux-based operating system that has a package management utility that talks to a public WWW site. As I said at https://mastodonapp.uk/@JdeBP/116156019252249071 and as @RunxiYu has also said, the statute as written covers all such systems. (It's an Act now, by the way, not a Bill.) Alpine Linux has a covered application store. Here, for example, is what 'publicly available internet website' apk as the 'software application' uses to 'facilitate the download' of the third-party rustc 'application' from the 'store' in Alpine Linux on the aforementioned #mainframes used by the aforementioned naughty 16-year-olds in #California: https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.23/main/s390x/ Yes, #CaliforniaLaw as written is this expansive. Yes, the legislators did not even consider how the BSDs and Linux-based operating systems work. None of the objectors apparently even mentioned how these work. #rust #USLaw #AgeVerification #GDPR #FreeSoftware #Unix

The Netherlands. Today's TV show Radar (20:25, NPO 2) will air an investigation on data collection by big tech on Dutch pharmacy websites. They interviewed me, so perhaps I’m on TV tonight.

'Online drogisterijen en webshops delen gevoelige gezondheidsdata met Big Tech’ Vanavond besteedt het tv-programma Radar (20:25 uur, NPO 2) aandacht aan een onderzoek naar het verzamelen van gegevens door grote technologiebedrijven op Nederlandse apotheek-websites.

@hopeward@sunny.garden It's not. You won't have seen this in San Francisco. But it is happening in the U.K. (which is suffering this to greater extent than the E.U. is, because of Brexit of course). People are being prompted to agree to new #Facebook/#Instagram fees as of this week, or take the only other option of consenting to all of their personal data being harvested and used, for 'AI' and otherwise, by #Meta. https://news.sky.com/story/got-an-instagram-notification-asking-if-you-want-to-pay-3-99-heres-what-you-need-to-know-13500110 @londondreamtime@mastodonapp.uk @tiggy@mastodonapp.uk #privacy #AI #GDPR #cookies

@londondreamtime@mastodonapp.uk @tiggy@mastodonapp.uk has been talking about this: https://mastodonapp.uk/@tiggy/115972283051790641 (As have a lot of people in other places. But Tiggy is one of the more prominent ones here.) #Facebook #cookies #Meta #privacy #AI #GDPR
