This is a nice ruling about GPL violation in France. Gives some more weight to the GPL.
Looks like enough people complained that they had to change course. Good, until the next bad move...
A good exploration of the Fediverse to Bluesky bridging debate from the angle of consent and the GDPR. It's complicated and that shouldn't come as unexpected.
Looks like good progress has been made. A few more adjustments would be welcome before it gets ratified.
Very interesting ruling, this opens the door to more parties being able to sue to enforce the GPL not just the authors.
How does it feel to just want to put something creative out there without being exploited? Very touching comic on the topic.
Very welcome complaont, Meta is trying to workaround the GDPR to increase paid accounts. Can only hope they get fined and that this shady practice disappear (they're not the only ones doing this).
The current compromise might not be as bad as anticipated. Some things could be improved still. The community needs to be involved in the process.
It was only a question of time until we'd see such lawsuits appear. We'll see where this one goes.
There will be an appeal but this is an important ruling already.
This is really bad... Now, this is investigation is UK centric though. I wonder how other countries would fare.
This is going to be interesting to see how this new regulation unfolds. Its impacts are well beyond just Microsoft.
Interesting line of argument regarding Free Software licenses. I wonder what the judges will conclude in the end... this could have important consequences.
Looks like it was a very interesting talk. Situation still needs to be monitored in any case, it's uncertain how those cases will be ruled.
This is unclear on the technicalities (is it even possible to just claim it like this? is CC0 required? etc.). Still this is a bold move, hats off to this renowned author.
Interesting analysis around the current situation around web scraping and intellectual property. This moved to being mostly dealt with using contract law which makes it a terrible minefield. Lots of hypocrisy all around too which doesn't help. GPT and the likes will likely be the next area where cases will rise.
Good explanations around the (deserved) complaints against Zoom and their not that new user license.
It'll be interesting to see where this complaint goes.
This is a welcome consequence of the CJUE ruling. Be warned, think twice before reaching for Google Analytics.
A reminder of what's going on in France... and it's bleak. Lots of things can turn you into a suspect at this point.
You encrypt your communications or data? You try to avoid surveillance from the GAFAM? You use Tor or a VPN?
If anything bad happens around you, then you'll turn into a suspect, this is due to the "clandestine behavior" you entertain... so for sure you are part of some "conspiracy".
This is very worrying.
