guyrocket ( @guyrocket@kbin.social ) 40•8 months agoNext question: How to get the whole EU to take this legal position?
DarkThoughts ( @DarkThoughts@kbin.social ) 8•8 months agoI could see it happen eventually. Would definitely be the best outcome for this whole consent banner madness.
Norgur ( @Norgur@kbin.social ) 24•8 months agoWell, let’s see how tue whole IT world weasels out of this one.
perviouslyiner ( @perviouslyiner@lemm.ee ) English18•8 months ago“oh we can’t possibly understand that field, as there is no agreed industry standard for how to treat it” - Get out, you know exactly what it means.
Norgur ( @Norgur@kbin.social ) 13•8 months agoBein forced to accept this would make their whole dark pattern cookie bullshit useless, sooooo

magnetosphere ( @magnetosphere@kbin.social ) 11•8 months agoTitle in English, article in German… not great.
jlow (he/him) ( @jlow@beehaw.org ) English12•8 months agoYeah, true. But maybe the perfect time to try the new translation feature in Firefox? __
magnetosphere ( @magnetosphere@kbin.social ) 4•8 months agoI don’t like or trust software translation. It’s often clunky, feels unnatural, and misses important nuance.
DarkThoughts ( @DarkThoughts@kbin.social ) 9•8 months agoThen use an addon that uses translation services like Google or DeepL? Or hire an actual translator if you feel that’s also unacceptable.
Radioactive Radio ( @radioactiveradio@lemm.ee ) English9•8 months agoOr learn the language, by FOSS means ofc. Make sure to check the licence for each word and verify the GPG key.
0x0 ( @0x0@programming.dev ) English8•8 months agoGood luck enforcing it.
Vexz ( @Vexz@kbin.social ) 3•8 months agoThe title is misleading. The article only talks about LinkedIn.
DarkThoughts ( @DarkThoughts@kbin.social ) 11•8 months agoIt’s called legal precedence.
