  • Most of it is contained to specific forums, there’s just more than one across a few instances, RedditMigration on Kbin is another.

    The more time I spend here the more I’m realising blocking communities/magazines is as much a key to a good experience as subscribing to them, of not more.

    It’ll all die down anyway, to a degree there’s just a lot of people here who just arrived from reddit. I’d avoid blocking the word itself as the wave will pass plus it’s being used as a comparison in meta threads about features and UI and you might find you want to see those conversations.





  • The GDPR itself doesn’t use the term organisation, it refers to data controllers and data processors.

    A “data controller” refers to a person, company, or other body which decides the purposes and methods of processing personal data.

    A “data processor” refers to a person, company, or other body which processes personal data on behalf of a data controller.

    As someone from within the EU working in data the fediverse is absolutely not a long way off having to consider this, GDPR impacts even the smallest businesses or voluntary groups - it’s just how we handle data.

    To make it easier to grasp GDPR is about your rights over your data, those don’t change depending on who is processing it, nor does the processors obligation, however what would be considered appropriate safeguards would scale with the size and intent of your organisation - it would be silly for my local shop to have a data protection officer.

    I suppose the question would become who is the controller, is it the person who provides the software or the person who provides the servers? Typically it’s the servers.
