Wolfie ChristlLiveRamp, formerly known as Acxiom, sits at the core of much of today's opaque personal data sharing for marketing purposes and maintains comprehensive identity records about everyone in many countries, including in Europe and the UK.
We examined LiveRamp's identity surveillance system, which facilitates digital tracking and profiling across many companies.

So, Iāve been planting more and more drought tolerant plants in my garden over the last few years. Today the garden was flooded as the ditch that runs through a pipe at the back of our land couldnāt cope with the flood water and flowed directly over the garden. Weāve lived here since 2009 and itās never come close to doing that before. There was also run-off from the field behind flowing straight over us. #gardening

Ben BuchananA few thoughts for people who are new due to #twitterdown #riptwitter
Currently mastodon feels like early Twitter: growing fast, rough edges, evolving norms, not everyone is here yet.
Don't instantly give up because it's different. Give it time.
Your follow(ing/er) count is not a scoreboard.
Chances are you've gone from a fire hose to a trickle, but is that actually bad? You don't have to frantically recreate your old feed. Maybe just slowly add content that makes you happy.

TikTok has confirmed members of its internal audit department looked at the location of Cristina's IP address - the unique number of a device - and compared it with the IP data of an unknown number of their own staff, to try to establish who was secretly meeting with the press. They "misused their authority" to do this and were acting unauthorised.

This is the first year I have had seed from the Hardy Plant Society seed scheme. Very impressed with the germination rates. Outstanding choice of interesting varieties. Itās members only but relatively cheap to join.
