these showed up after Jul 21 per GitHub "contribution activity" but are retroactively dated to 13 - they were probably private before that.
We may not see that full implementation is already worked on.
EU should come back to the rescue.
It's the only thing that has a chance of working. Us few Firefox users have no chance of weighing in the balance, we'll just be cast aside. And the US won't do anything, as usual.
tbh i think other government bodies should follow UN too, as far as i know they have been the only governing body that voices concern whenever tech companies become too greedy.
The EU isn't some magical force that only does good for privacy. They had their own fair share of scandals and pretty much all regulations regarding privacy and data collection conveniently omit duties and responsibility for governments and such. They just realized that in an information age information is power. And they want that power for themselves and not some large state-like corporations. Which can be a win for us, sometimes, but it's not a silver bullet.
This in particular is actually something they might like, because it would allow them to ensure "safe" environment for ... whatever they want. With convenient tracking and anything else should they desire so.
