Among other things, the company collects data about when you start a #game, for how long you play it and when you close it. Even after the complainant explicitly asked why he is forced to be #online, Ubisoft failed to disclose why this is going on. Under Article 6(1) #GDPR, there seems to be no valid legal basis to randomly collect such user data.

Los fabricantes de smart TV se forran compartiendo con sus socios nuestros datos y atropellando nuestra privacidad. Es una vergüenza y @EUCommission tiene que prohibir de una vez estas prácticas abusivas.
Mientras tanto, acabo de denunciar a #LG ante el Ministerio de Derechos Sociales y Consumo y desconectado de la red el dispositivo que tenía desde hace años y que en la última actualización LG nos obliga a aceptar todas sus condiciones que violan nuestra libertad y privacidad para poder usarlo.
Por favor, hagan lo mismo. Basta de toda esta basura de cookies y mercadeo de información privada. Realmente la perversión que ha hecho la corporación a Internet es nauseabunda. Están constantemente violando nuestros derechos.
We often talk about #chatcontrol. Here we have summarized why this surveillance monster is so dangerous and what is actually meant by it.
As autonomists, anarchists and anti-authoritarians we should fight against it, create attention and make the whole thing known as a topic outside of net activists!

Protect your Site with a DOOM Captcha.
Guillermo Rauch [CEO of Vercel], a frontend-as-a-service product, just used the company's AI site builder to come up with a new twist on CAPTCHA’s, one that invites users to play the classic first person shooter game DOOM and killing at least three monsters — on nightmare mode.
#doom #retro #pixelart #gaming #captcha #it #security #privacy #programming #engineer #media #webdev #tech #art #news
![We all know that “Can it run DOOM?” is the first question of a hardware hacker. The 1993 first person shooter from id Software defined an entire genre of games, and has since been made open source, appearing on almost everything.
Announcing his latest innovation on New Year's Eve, Guillermo Rauch's Doom CAPTCHA adds to a lengthy list of notable [and more serious/useful] feats, including authorship of Next.js, Mongoose and Socket.IO, among other open source projects. The Doom CAPTCHA might take the title for most fun, though.
That is, if you can cope with Doom on nightmare mode [the highest difficulty], which makes the demonic enemies harder to kill and more aggressive. Your correspondent did manage it on the first try, once I remembered that it's not immediately obvious how to strafe, and was left with a meager 19 percent health and a suitably bloodied and battered status bar face.
Since most web users find even the most basic CAPTCHA an annoying hoop to jump through, I don't see the nightmare Doom version gaining much traction outside the most sadistic devs implementing it as a joke or to intentionally annoy people.](https://inne.city/photo/preview/640/317906 "We all know that “Can it run DOOM?” is the first question of a hardware hacker.

So here’s [Guillermo Rauch] DOOM captcha, in which you must gun down three bad guys to proceed.
It’s a WebAssembly application as you might have guessed, and while it’s difficult to shake that idea from the early 90’s that you needed a powerful computer to run DOOM, in reality it shows just how powerful WebAssembly is, as well as how far we’ve come in three decades.
The captcha prefer a few different entry points instead of always playing the same level, and I were always more handy with the mouse than the keyboard back in the day, but it’s certainly a bit of fun. It’s worth noting that simply playing the game isn’t enough to verify your humanity — if you’re killed in the game before vanquishing the required three foes, you’ll have to start over. As the game is running at “Nightmare” difficulty, proving your worth might be a tad harder than you’d expect.

CAPTCHA programs that are used to determine whether a site visitor is a person or a bot come in pretty standard formats. Think text distortion [where users type the characters they see in a box amid other squiggles]; image recognition [you’re selecting, say, all the squares in a grid with a bicycle image]; and checkbox verification [you click on that box that reads: “I am not a robot”].](https://inne.city/photo/preview/640/317908 "[ImageSource: Guillermo Rauch]

Google is so sneaky. This prompt inside Gmail gives you three options. The two most visible options (number 1 is 'Try it now' and number 2 is 'Continue') basically mean 'Enable Gemini AI to write emails.' The third option cancels it which is hidden well. Google, you could do better than this. This is a perfect example of a dark pattern. For those who want AI to write basic emails can enable it but there is not need to do this kind of "shady" stuff.

Daher unser Tipp 23 von #UnplugTrump
Verzichte auf Amazon Music und Apple Music – und auch Spotify! Diese Streaming-Dienste zahlen Künstler schlecht und sammeln Unmengen an Nutzerdaten. Eine Alternative ist Funkwhale ein dezentrales Open-Source-Musiknetzwerk. Oder du setzt auf Bandcamp (solange es noch unabhängig genug ist) und kaufst Musik direkt bei Künstlerinnen und Künstlern. 👇
