It's incredible how much space is given to a few people in motor vehicles vs so many more people on foot or wheels. It's a vast inequity.
Nowhere is this more stark than #ShibuyaCrossing; the world's busiest pedestrian crossing with as many as 3,000 people crossing at a time. Compared to around 12 cars fromone direction of the junction in one sequence. #Urbanism #CitiesForPeople

"Digital Rights Ireland suing Facebook and DPC over data breach"
Complicated background, but TL;DR:
* FB leaked sensitive details about 100s of millions of users.
* We complained to the DPC.
* DPC found FB broke the law, but failed to handle our complaint properly and found that there was no notifiable data breach(!).
* We have now appealed that DPC decision to the courts.
* We will later bring a representative action against FB on behalf of affected users.

We now need some help to learn from this event... #Archives
We have found a surprising number of locations with barometer measurements of pressure during Jan 1839. This should allow us to build a reanalysis to inform about the risks of such events today.
But, are there other sources we have not yet found?
The walls of Shibuya’s “transparent toilet” are supposed to turn opaque when someone’s using it. But…they…don’t always do that. Apparently, a dip in temperature can harden the wall’s material and elongate transition time, leaving some doing their business in full public view. #japan #unseenjapan #news
