Over at #PageKite, I blogged a "Happy GDPR Day!" blog post:

pagekite.net/2018-05-25/Happy_!

We didn't send anyone any cringe-worthy e-mails, because we're not that kind of business. AFAICT, our TOS and practices were already just fine.

But I wrote a little bit about how we handle our users' data. People deserve to know.

Heh, so Mastodon won't let me put exclamation marks in URLs, eh?

Boo!

Oh well, fixed at the source. If you followed the link and got a 404, reload.

Ugh. That should also have been an https:// link... gotta set up a redirect one of these days.

Anyway. This all reminds me of one of my little dorky jokes.

You know how websites have a robots.txt file that tells robots how to behave?

PageKite has a humans.txt file: pagekite.net/humans.txt

Why is that not the standard URL for terms of service everywhere?

@HerraBRE lots of people use humans.txt to credit the humans that built the service; there's even an informal mini standard:
humanstxt.org/
