This is gonna be fun: OpenAI runs afoul of the GDPR because it generates false information about individuals and they don't have full access to the data that pertains to them.

From the article:

> Maartje de Graaf, data protection lawyer at noyb: β€œThe obligation to comply with access requests applies to all companies. [...] It seems that with each β€˜innovation’, another group of companies thinks that its products don’t have to comply with the law.”

@elilla i hear it's likely the same for Bing since that's what DDG is based on

A semi-playable Doom demo I built for #FrontEndConf using CSS scroll timeline, a handful of checkboxes and has() selectors + a nice assist from image-rendering: pixelated.

Oh and no JS, as god intended.

β€œLGBTQ young people are aging out of care and most of them do not even have a single person, let alone a robust support system, who they can count on.... It is a type of loneliness unlike anything I've seen.” texastribune.org/2024/04/23/te

So far this week...

The FTC banned the use of noncompete clauses.

The DOL strengthened overtime rules.

The FCC restored #NetNeutrality.

The DOT expanded protections for airline passengers.

This is what it looks like when the government works on behalf of the people.

Can you imagine what the #Fediverse would look like now if the response to Gab had been "Admins don't need to block these instances, individual users can just choose whether or not to apply a user-level block (mute) themselves"?

And #Meta is even more corrosive than Gab. Gab users just posted a barrage of hate and unpleasantness. Meta is commercially incentivised to destroy what some people are inviting it to into.

Net Neutrality is restored:

"In a 3–2 vote, the FCC voted to restore Net Neutrality protections & reclassify high-speed-internet access services as telecom services subject to Title II of the Communications Act.

The decision is a major victory for the public interest: Title II authority empowers the FCC to hold companies: AT&T, Comcast, Spectrum... accountable for a wide range of harms to internet users across the US, fast, open +fair for all of us.”

Avoid using emoji as bullet points in social media posts. An emoji has a coded description that gets read by screen readers, and thus could confuse users who think that's part of the content. If you can't use standard lists, use dashes for bullet points or add line breaks.
