Ha yup, the whole ss7 network is the most funky shit we have in terms of telco privacy risks. And it doesn’t take a whole lot to be relatively legitimately part of it. Scary shit.

How does that compares with a ds220+ on electricity consumption ? Would it be relatively similar ? The specs are way better so it would be appealing but not if it doubles the maintenance costs.

Synology ds cam plus a whole lot of Chinese HIK vision Poe cameras. Some inside some outside. The whole thing coupled with HA. It’s been working for years now so no complaint. The one time a camera died on me the vendor replaced it free of charge which I appreciated.

I doubt something like this will spillover to the professional line of products. We should be clear for a while with Omada.

Yeah well imagine what it is when you are old yourself… having a majority of like aged friends and even older family… no one is ever leaving FB before they are ded :-/

Yeaaahhhh any competent DBA would be crucified for doing physical deletion nonchalantly in an actual corporate environment… Due to integrity issues within one database or across several ones in complex chains. Honestly a lots of the times logical deletion is preferred anyway. And then that deletion request would be propagated via events and then, maybe, possibly physically deleted. What’s the point in those over simplifications ? Makes dba looks lazy imho which isn’t a nice thing to do.

That certainly happens without any ai involvement… reconciliation processes are a very established thing…

Weird shit can happen when one applies right to be forgotten. For some purposes data must be kept nevertheless (for tax obligations for example) while for marketing not (and even then some might argue legitimate interest and not fully deleted all instances of your data). And then the week after some stupid asshole reconcile invoice data with mailing lists and here you are.

Haaaa noyb… never a dull moment with them.

In Europe that would not be permanently stored but is would be for a while indeed. A few years after the subscription’s validity at least.

Companies are still allowed to store data and not delete it depending on the purpose… Being able to demonstrate that they complied with your request by keeping the associated email would be a fair exemple.

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.

There’s plenty of techniques to avoid re-identification… aggregation isn’t the only way. Especially considering that aggregation if using a stupid dimension isn’t helping at all…

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…

I can understand being fine with a nomination that aligns with his personal interests but from there the journey to « party of small people » likely takes a convoluted path.

Your examples are clear indication that you know jack shit about actual police work. Admittedly in civilised countries where there are checks and due process. Cops aren’t getting access freely to comms. A magistrate can depending on circumstances. And there’s plenty of red tape everywhere. Even telco operators will refuse to respond to a request if not absolutely justified. And typically that’s not when timmy sold some shit to his neighbour. Organised crime, murders, rapts… instances of those with actual victims are not threats, they are shits that happen and needs to be sorted.

Lemme be the judge of that… grow a bit and put your argument on the table.

Don’t hesitate to develop…

Call interception, retro and all methods of investigation relying on télécommunications are, and need to remain, a tool available for police forces when the crimes they are investigating are greatly impacting society. Having a prosecutor request those within acceptable limits is a net positive. Not the same as having dragnets spying on everyone in the hope of hitting keywords mind.

But criminality is using more and more complex tools at their disposition and there’s just no way of policing like in medieval times anymore.
