  • I think the decision itself highlights the dichotomy between the EU’s push for the right of digital privacy for citizens of its constituent nations when using products and services and the EU’s push to have unrestricted insight into the digital lives of those same citizens.

    You can’t have digital privacy from select third parties only, it’s an all or nothing thing. If you don’t want your citizens to be tracked and their browsing data sold, don’t allow websites or ISPs to track that data. If you don’t want that data to be sold, but you want it tracked and accessible to the government then call it a right to not be monetized, not a right to privacy.

    I agree that the article itself is pretty duplicitous as well. None of rhetoric direct sources they quoted seemed to have anything to do with piracy.

    Out of curiosity, is copyright infringement a civil matter instead of a criminal matter in all EU member states? I only ask because I thought there were some EU member states where copyright infringement was explicitly not a legal violation, civil, criminal, or otherwise.








  • I mean you do you, but there’s always a trade off with these types of things (usually security at the expense of usability), so most people would be better served by taking stock of their activities, the risk caused by those activities, then mitigating that risk to an acceptable level. If acceptable to you is cruising around to mcdonald’s parking lots so you can bounce off their wifi like you’re taking the risk of ordering weight more power to you, but just know that from a risk mitigation perspective you’re implementing controls way out of line with the actual risk. Probably, depending on your local laws etc idk i’m not you.




  • I don’t torrent, just usenet. I added Paw Patrol into sonarr and have an ungodly amount of episodes of that show. The only kids show i’ve ran in to issues getting personally was some newish winnie the pooh show, but a new season dropped recently and the backlog filled in basically overnight.

    Edit - I’m missing one episode in season 5, fourteen in season 9, and twenty five from season 10. Not really sure why i’m missing so many from the more recent seasons, but with 101.9GiBs of Paw Patrol none of the parents I share my media with care when they can hit shuffle, and their four year olds definitely don’t give a fuck about which episode just dropped. Although I’m probably going to hyperfixate on this now and not sleep until i’ve grabbed everything that’s missing so thanks for that lol.
