Sure, as you know that you can throw people overboard to save your own ass.

In France there are some mistakes that became social markers.

People following conspiracy theories are mostly bad educated people, and they wrongly conjugate some verbs.

The most common examples are:

• "Nous sachons", instead of "Nous savons" (we know)
• "Ils croivent" instead of "Ils croient" (they think, they believe)
• "Comme même" instead of "Quand même" (nonetheless, despite, kinda hard to translate)

Making one of those mistakes will immediately tag you as a fool.

Demanding ID was the standard procedure under the 95/46 directive, with GDPR any way of proving your identity is enough.

It can range to log in the service to actually demanding an ID if sensible data are handled.

In your case, the Guidelines 01/2022 from the EDPB, especially points 63 to 65, tend to say that you authenticated yourself properly.

=> involve the DPA (dutch or belgian, according the language of the response, but you can anyway check in the Privacy Notice)

Even though, only the winning side would draft the "official" version of the events. The "real" "truth" would appear only decades later, when everyone involved is dead (or almost) and independant research can happen. E.g. a former French "résistant" recently confessed his group summarily executed a bunch of captured German Soldier in 1944. Some of the members went in politics afterwards, preventing any investigation to take place.

Humanity will make huge progress once it stop commenting every sh*t originating from E. Misk.

Seriously, there is now way to block all that noise?

Cost-cutting is corporate-greed mindset, therefore you have to solve it with the same mindset.

Fire people ! Even you if needed. And let the end-users deal with the outcome.

Hi, Never tried to delete my account there, but if you have a track of your discussion with them, I'm sure your DPA will be happy to hear your complain :)

Not dealing with **the effects of **copyright is the thing here.

And in that sense he can gain some insights ;)

If I had to implement this business model, I would go to a country that don't give a f* about dcma & stuff, and implement it in a similar way as Mega did.

With just the adjunction that if you upload a new book, you get free subscription for one week/month/year (depending if you share a small article, or the whole Encyclopedia Universalis)

He has actually a point. You need access to your services for which purposes? As long as you are @home, you have access to your services (but those cannot reach outside). You can still browse your photos and likes.

If you are out, it's easier to get a copy of what you need on your device (e.g. passwords) than set up a backup internet connection. (IMO, at least)

First, you need a use-case. It's worthless to have a server just for the sake of it.

For example, you may want to replace google photos by a local save of your photos.

Or you may want to share your movies accross the home network. Or be able to access important documents from any device at home, without hosting them on any kind of cloud storage

Or run a bunch of automation at home.

TL;DR choose a service you use and would like to replace by something more private.
