  • What would be your preferred approach ? I’m on the implementation side of this in a reasonably large company and so far I found the act to be reasonable. It must rely on some interpretation as every piece of such regulation. Same as GDPR for example and yet it’s a very important progress for EU citizens guarantee wise.

  • Depends on the dimension used. « Shoulds » are meaningless. Let’s not assume everyone is doing shit work, awareness is getting there and people are getting more capable to correctly classify data. Anyway assuming correct classification there are techniques that changes classification enough to allow exportation of data to shit countries.

  • It’s never been illegal at all, you’re oversimplifying the issue. Plenty of use cases that can use US clouds. Not all data is PII and plenty of use cases perform fine by anonymising their data. Also EU countries aren’t that better than US when it comes to state issued privacy violations; we just don’t do dragnet bullshit (yet) but plenty of requests are served as requested…

  • Depends on the jurisdiction and the case specifics. In europe, under GDPR the consequence we (my employer) are the most terrified about is an injunction to stop any further processing of given data for a purpose that would be deemed illegitimate.

    You’re not coming back from that one…

    And that would typically be on top of the fine which would be to some extent « cost of doing business » indeed.

  • I have to tackle the last floor from insulation / electrical / heating to finish.

    Then find how to get the whole documentation for the new electrical installation since the initial company that did most of the work went under do that I can have it surveyed. And 4 more windows openings to re-finish since the walls are now ~20cm wider.

    And then 2025 should be the year we do our exteriors :)

  • Sounds very US… I had to take some info on the topic here in europe and it appears that there’s a very much unalienable right for kids (and next of kin) to a fair distribution.

    One can literally not change the part of the patrimony going to a child (without resorting to very complex arrangements that seemingly won’t be accepted by a judge should shit hits the fan).

    Even though, for example, one learns he did not father a child -still cannot change the percentage. Tough luck for the other children, the wife…

    Everyone has a right to be protected here. In the grand scheme of things it’s for the best.

    And yeah, ethics is the basis for this simply you have to assume the position of the weakest one involved and not from the perspective of the one with the money ;-)

  • Like with all emerging technologies let’s wait for jurisprudence on those… though in europe we generally frown upon anything firearms I guess there will be some interesting evolutions with drones.

    As platforms they open too many possibilities and a rather constraining framework is already preventing their operation unless you have a license… which could become more of an access barrier if abuses become more prevalent.

    Anecdotally I have seen first hand in 2 occasions unlicensed operators getting caught and largely fined; which was in the end more expensive that having the little drone shot.

    Anyway having references that broadly seem to offer protection to drone operators isn’t necessarily a good news even where gun maniacs aren’t plentiful.

  • This; « complies with most of the current human health guideline values set by various authorities in the EU, even with a high daily consumption of 2 litres » for someone not professionally involved means « is ok ». The authorities in the EU literally say « it complies ».

    There are additional limits but from what I can read those re precautions not necessarily coming from health guidelines but from other sciences. Most likely very welcomed precautions though but it still says « complies today ».

    Also you are avoiding my main concern which is « then what should I do? ».

    We can play semantics the whole afternoon and in the end I agree with the idea that unwanted chemicals must be removed from my food & drinks; but then what? We stop drinking ?

  • Still, from the article; « Additionally, mineral water is less contaminated with TFA than tap water on average. »

    Sooooo… maybe it is more regulated but tests seems to indicate that it’s still more contaminated -in general.
