I had a friend with a better internet connection and CD burner, had him download every single NIN album and burn them for me, saving me hundreds of dollars. Senior year was great!

Just remembered that downloading a CD off the internet was very illegal but ordering a CD from [some web shop whose name I can't remember*], ripping it, and then returning it before the bill was due was, and still is, perfectly legal :finland: (Of course you can't do it with shrink-wrapped CDs which is... most CDs nowadays I guess?)

*) I think it's the shop that evolved into CDON.COM but I'm not sure :shrug:

I'd love this instead of a regular gender party. I've been to a couple and I hate them. Just another reason to collect gifts and awkwardly gather people that don't know one another to celebrate something that nobody but the parents care about.

In the other extreme, I know a couple that is using "they" pronoun for their child, and not revealing sex to anyone who does not have access to the baby's diaper content. It's one thing to be supportive of your kid's gender identity, but forcing its erasure during the development stage might leave a mental scar or two, one would think.

Yeah I'm assuming they're American anyway so there are no protections for personal information anyway.

However, if they're in the EU they're breaking two lawsthe same law twice: keeping personal information in a registry after it has ceased to be relevant, and using personal information from a registry for non-essential purposes.

Anyway it's fake so :shrug:

Oh yes they are, you just don't know the law. Personal information is any bit of data that can directly or indirectly be used to identify a person. (Yeah it's hella broad, which is why so many American companies' web sites just block traffic from the EU rather than bother complying with the law.)

e: I guess it's a statute or something but that's irrelevant. It's been in effect in every EU country since 2018.

ee: The last item on the "what is personal information" list of examples is :newlol: but still true: "information regarding hereditary medical conditions of great great grandparents". "Name" is quite obviously the top one on the list.

For me it was when randomly one of the characters said something like:

“You know what I was wondering?”

And he just juts in

“Where are all the baby pigeons?”

And it is such a dumb but amazingly observant question. :monocle:

It's absolutely not as simple as that and you know it. Does "John Smith" identify someone? No? It's not personal data then. If you combined "John Smith" with a DOB, then probably yes.

It's better explained at https://ico.org.uk/for-organisation...-personal-data/

- Personal data is information that relates to an identified or identifiable individual.

- If it is possible to identify an individual directly from the information you are processing, then that information may be personal data.

- It is possible that the same information is personal data for one controller’s purposes but is not personal data for the purposes of another controller.

- Information which is truly anonymous is not covered by the GDPR.

So it's not really possible to make a broad sweeping statement like "a name is always personal information", it depends on the context, what the information is used for, what other information is linked and so on. I don't know how popular a name "Dick Harden" is in the US, but it seems very unlikely that an individual could positively be identified just from that twitter post.

In addition, if you have a list of names combined with numbers in your mobile phone, then by your argument, you're breaking the law as well.

You're missing the point. It's personal information when it's in a registry. That is unambiguous. It's the being in a registry part that makes using it for tweet likes illegal. It being in the registry after employment being terminated is still illegal too of course. Names aren't illegal, hell I have four.
