merry gdprmas folks
So many of my coworkers asked me why I was carrying around a towel today that I was starting to get discouraged.
But then one of them said "Hey, you sass that new frood that joined [development team]?" and now I feel better about life.
This past week, GDPR (Garrett Did Privacy Revamping). Glad that's over and the new privacy policies are now all in place.
Thankfully, nothing was really complex.

Looking up the music of a local band to see if I want to go to their concert. Turns out that when you internet-search for "Hot Chicks" they are not on the first page...
Kinda embarrassed I only realised this once I saw the results.
A little disappointed they are four dudes but the music sounds nice enough, so I might actually go 😀
Tumblr tried to sneak in data collection under the radar. After a few taps, you can get a list of who they're sharing data with.
The list takes 19 screenshots to see all the names on my phone.
NINETEEN.
Apparently Jeff Bezos makes $28,000 (the median yearly salary of an Amazon employee) every 9 seconds.
He's on the way to becoming the world's first trillionaire.
The inequality is mind boggling. How do you actually, concretely, undo this kind of madness?

So this is how the instant app thing went down yesterday
1. Someone on here shared a link to a CBC article about a video of two lynxes being cute
2. This content is highly relevant to my interests, so I clicked the link on my Android phone
3. Instead of opening the URL in chrome, Android instead installed the CBC "instant app" and opened the article there
4. The article would not let me play the video it was about, saying I would need to install the real app to play video
5. Everything sucks
Dance like you're using the entropy generated by your movement to create cryptographic keys
