@kevinrenskers Just because everyone does it doesn't mean it's okay.

  • This #US-centric attitude is just wrong!
    • We don't have that #DataBroker bullshit here and certainly noone wants it here eiter!

Seriously, One cannot deploy #ClownFlare in compliance with #GDPR & #BDSG as these are incompatible with the demands of #CloudAct and #CloudFlare is too busiy #bootlicking, so even if they could somehow do a legal construction to avoid that [which would mean they'd have to build a fully independent subsidiary in the EU and GeoIP stuff which isn't even reliable!) they won't!

  • Same goes with all the other #GAFAM garbage:
    • Just because there isn't a #Schrems3 or #Schrems4 court decision doesn't mean it's gonna be safe!

#thxbye #EOD #next

@kkarhan@infosec.space Yeah but who is talking about exporting PII, including IP addresses? Umami doesn't store IP addresses. Not sure if CloudFlare does, but since a huge chunk of websites use CloudFlare and their security rules, pretty sure it's ok. It's not being used to track anyone.

@oaklandprivacy would be better if they copied #GDPR & #BDSG and banned any #DataBrokers without said #DataBroker having explicitly obtained written consent beforehand!

@Rex_Banner Das ist das nächste große Problem an der Sache. Selbst wenn man nicht in einen Dissens gerät, wird man halt Futter für #databroker. Aber ich stimme dir voll zu. Eine solche Pflicht würde den offenen Diskurs allein durch die Möglichkeit von Übergriffen zum kompletten Erliegen bringen.
