Am I the only one annoyed the article is an article about a future article? Like I didn’t get anything out of their experience into linux because it’s just a pre-article and the user transition experience is what we’re interested in.

This guy would probably conclude that a US company operating in the EU would also need to apply GDPR to US users. He is so confidently wrong

The more unique it is, the more easy to find you. That’s why anti-fingerprinting is a problem because removing tracking makes you more unique compared to millions of devices with the same data tracked.

Can you confirm you are physically in the EU? If you are not, they do not care because as you pointed out, “it protects data subjects in the EU”. If you are not in the EU, then your location DOES matter. If you are in an EU territory (or territory where international agreements deem it applicable) even as a non-EU citizen, then that would suck. It doesn’t sound like lottery to me- be physically in a territory where the law applies and get gdpr. Expecting laws to apply outside their jurisdiction is crazy

Yet this same article in paragraph 2 literally says it only covers EU citizens.

“This Regulation applies to the processing of personal data of data subjects who are in the Union”

Why are you surprised when they point this out?

But why would they take less if they can take more and you will keep buying it because it’s cheap? These devices are a race to the bottom

I can’t imagine an anime like detective conan or school rumble without translator notes. They would be unwatchable

Doesn’t need to be by age tbh- you could have content tags and filter by content instead of age (I.e. No graphic violence). That would ignore country discrepancies and then give more flexibility

Honestly feels criminal with how bloated companies have made these phones yet they cheap out on a headphone jack.

Again, my point is the cadence supports people looking to upgrade, not people who are already on a fairphone. You are not the market

If they didn’t buy a previous fairphone, you’re going to miss all the people who wanted to try it but didn’t want a 5 year old phone tech. I imagine most people replace around 3-5 years due to battery degradation, people dropping their phones, or lack of updates

Tbf there’s definitely some confirmation bias in there because a person who didn’t enjoy being remote probably wouldn’t seek that type of job

Is there a non paywalled link?

I wish I could ban old people from it as well because when their mental processing ability declines, so does their ability to detect bullshit news from bots

Not wrong there, though I find it humorous they expected her to apologize in the dismissal letter
