~~Wow. there are some takes on this. I agree with the sentiment, but five posts of 97 in and I've read something to the effect of "violating ToS is illegal" two or maybe three times. Buncha people trying to lawyer this out of existence out of court with only a high school education and a few episodes of law and order to guide them. Then it's a whole bunch of parrots saying the headline with a bunch of thumbs and hearts and no actual discussion or real engagement with the concept. A few good takes here and there, but mostly confused panicflood. Yikes. This is going to be a clusterfuck.~~
Edit: About a third of the way down I start seeing really cogent arguments, and compiled evidence against the proposal. A little further and I can see the project engineer's uh... response basically ignoring everything "I knew I would recieve pushback and I did, more than I was expecting, but I'm going forward anyway" fucking
Edit 2: forget everything I said at first, this guy is an asshole
"You're not wrong, you're just an asshole" could apply here. Assholes can do things that are technically okay to do.
You mean the part about people citing laws like GDPR is dead on?
I meant this part "Buncha people trying to lawyer this out of existence out of court with only a high school education and a few episodes of law and order to guide them." in my original comment was dead on.
Right. I agree.
