In a defamation lawsuit, it would not be X that had to prove it was a lie. It would be CCDH that had to prove it had evidence for their claims (notice that it does not need to be true, only has to be reasonable for CCDH to believe it is true based on evidence they had).
Honestly, I am amazed that core of SpaceX works as well as it does considering what I learned about Musk recently. That being said, the StarLink and Mars projects seem to be a bad joke, not even slightly based in reality.
No, I also wouldn’t compare them if the post and the comment above did not mention Signal. Anyway, I can still make the point that worse ease of use is more difficult to sell.
I unfortunatelly have to use outlook and teams at work. If this really becomes the case, I will both write to EU regulators and try to petition our IT to move away from microsoft teams and potentially outlook.
Honestly, I still have more hope for Signal compared to Lemmy/fediverse. As much as I like it here, Signal is just so much more user-friendly and explainable. I am also slowly making people around me set it up.
Except it is not just your instance and the instance hosting the post (which would make sense). It is every instance in the federation. So if I want to see how you vote, I just need to pay few bucks for hosting and make my own instance.
TBD, but I would not be suprised. As an aside, I did not see any such shenenigans when buying from Amazon most likely because EU tends to be more liberal with the fines.
When you send a gdpr request to an instance, it is required to forward it to all parties it shared data with. So all instances it federates with.
But I am not talking about gdpr requests but data usage. Intentionally not removing data a user requested to be removed would get you in truble with the legitimate use (part of consent) requirements.
