I believe it was already required to disclose data collection, except you had to build the UI for that yourself. This makes it easier to comply, and more recognisable for us users.

As far as I know you’ll still be able to use the old one. Presumably it won’t see much love, but I don’t think it hasn’t seen much love for years anyway.

That said, you probably won’t see those old profiles in the new profile manager, but if you’re happy with your current setup that doesn’t sound like much of a problem.

I mean, it’ll be harder to search for “burger” on my supermarket’s website to find vegetarian alternatives to burgers. They’ll get more expensive because they have to relabel things. And my EP representatives have to waste their time on this instead of important issues.

Wait, what’s wrong (or AI) about that quoted sentence?

They’ll also still have a minority in the Senate, is that right?

That’s why I don’t like people not wanting us to lead in this area. How are we going to tell others to make more progress, if we’re not even doing so great ourselves?

Most of them are.

Yes, I was referring to the article saying that without at least one of them, it’s unlikely to make it:

The matter must be agreed among a qualified majority of member states, meaning at least one of the larger countries – Germany or Italy – will have to support the bid if it is to succeed.

Article content: To propose slapping duties on Israeli goods. The Council still has to agree, which means Italy or Germany needs to agree, and neither of them seems inclined to. So this is not a done deal yet.

By “auto-grouping” you mean that it groups when you drag and drop, but you still want it available in the context menu? You could set browser.tabs.dragDrop.createGroup.delayMS in about:config to a very high number - then you’ll have to hold one tab over the other for a long time before it actually offers to group them.

“Say that the Spanish government was forcing us to choose between undermining encryption in a way that would pollute Signal and making it dangerous for everyone, or leaving the market. That means everyone in the world who has a contact in Spain they need to talk to, they could no longer communicate. If the choice were between undermining encryption, undermining our privacy promises in a way that harmed anyone who use the Signal network, or leaving a market, we would leave a market in a heartbeat,” she explains.

This is so true. It’s been good enough for me for so many years at this point, and yet it just keeps getting better. The whole experience is so much nicer now than it was years ago, which was better than years before that, etc.

(That said, better hardware also helps a lot.)

Still had SPD in it, no? And FDP.

Wasn’t Germany also opposed the two previous times it was proposed?

I can live with that, although I’ll also note that the sample size is biased.

Auto-reminder that StatCounter is garbage and these articles are almost always about statistical noise, not actual behavioural change.

It indicates their being sarcastic, because they aren’t confident that that’s obvious to every reader.

It literally happened hours ago. I’m going to wait and see before rushing to conclusions.

Does the linked proposal say that the US intelligence agencies get access to everybody’s record, or just to the ones with a plane ticket?

Yeah that’s funny. I just learned about the Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon last week, and now I see it mentioned everywhere.
