The DMA is only vague if you're trying to game it. The rules amount to “don't be a dick”.

Whereas most people don't have to ask themselves that question

@stroughtonsmith That seems to be a fundamental difference between American (Perhaps inherited from British?) and European law.

They’re always out there with the “well technically this comma was placed such that I had to do A and B to be wrong, not A or B” and any sane person would just say “Yeah no, just stop.”

@philip @stroughtonsmith except for the part where they sometimes philosophize about the intentions of their founding fathers 😄
