Ever heard about chargeback? Credit card is supreme in terms of protection against scams.
Shameless self promo: I was upset by this as well so I’m working now on a curated search engine just for anything related to webdev. It focuses on blogs and docs. No BS, just high quality sources.
Also it’s hosted on a PC in my living room ;)
Good way to pay your informants.
Service shows you a code that you scan with your device. This code transfers some challenge and information where to send a response. Your device checks if you’re you and then sends a response telling the server you try to log in that hey this guys is indeed the guy, here’s the problem I solved using my private key (asynchronous encryption).
What the fucking fuck. In Europe this would cause French and Germans combined beheading entire governments. One thing I want to keep to myself is my porn choices. Giving my ID to a porn site sounds like a big fucking NO
Can someone explain it to Europeans?
Stuttering is a failure connection between brain, lungs and mouth. Has nothing to do with hands so no, sign language people don’t stutter.
Source: I stutter since 4yo and spent a lot of time with other stuttering people helping them.
I keep my drives encrypted with a key currently hosted in my router hoping they wouldn’t steal that. I’m thinking of actually putting it to cloud so I can disable it remotely.
It was quite a ride to make everything work and I made a blog post explaining it so I remember what I did.

Orlen ist sehr populär (Tankstelle) in Polen, mit "französischen Hotdogs", die sind auch sehr populär. Seit ein paar Jahren, eröffnet Orlen viele neue Tankstellen in DE unter "Star" Brand. Tankstellen sind gleich wie diese in Polen, sonst gibt es kein polnisches Essen wie z.B. Hotdogs. Auch kein polnisches Bier.
So it was DNS?
It may not be a pure nonsense. It might be that according to GDPR the company is eligible for some data use but according to telecommunication law needs still consent to even send this data.
Example: company X analyses their traffic on the backend by aggregating logs per user in a anonymised way because they want to know how many users in a given country uses their product Y. They can do it without any consent as the data is in their system anyway and it is a legitimate interest to know facts about their own product.
Now they want to enrich this by tracking whether the user clicked a homepage banner or a footer link in order to open that product page. This tracking is made on the browser with javascript by sending an AJAX request with a click event. This is still valid for GDPR but not for telecom law that says (German example from TTDSG) you're not allowed to send anything from a user device unless it's required for service or you have consent.
Then this kind of consent would make sense.
In the OP example I go with bullshit though. It's most likely pretending to be compliant while breaking the law.
