Today’s post is about a case you can use to teach the outer reaches of contractual consent, if you don’t mind introducing a bit of agency law into your contracts course. Hat tip to amicus author @brettfrischmann.bsky.social

I fucking hate it here
For those of you with #android #devices, you can use the Android Debug Bridge (#ADB) standalone #app control program to get rid of all the #bloatware, #datamining, and #AI crap - no coding needed!

My employer expects me to install MS Authenticator on my phone, and use it to log in to their systems. I laugh.

At Soverin, we believe in doing things the right way, not the easy way:
Your data stays yours.
No scanning, no profiling, no AI training.
Just honest, privacy-first email.
Because once trust is lost, no slick UX or comforting phrase can fix it.

Seems to me that any #AI remotely usefull to society is just an orchestrated bunch of #DataMining tools applied to a very specific set(s) of data.
Unlike the #GAI slop pushed out by #TechBros which is anything but data mining; it is just absolutely useless, voracious and mind numbing shite.

CJEU receives first referral on chatbots and copyright - Eleonora Rosati https://ipkitten.blogspot.com/2025/05/cjeu-receives-first-referral-on.html 'Like Company v Google, C-250/25 comes from Hungary. It concerns chatbots vis-á-vis the press publishers’ right and the text and data mining (TDM) provision under, respectively, Articles 15 and 4 of the DSM Directive.
The referral, in essence, is asking the CJEU to clarify the applicability of the rights of reproduction and making available to the public in relation to the reproduction and display, in the responses of Google’s chatbot, of content that is partially identical to the content found on a newspaper’s website.' #copyright #datamining #chatbots #EUlaw
Data mining. Cartoon from 2022.
If a store, especially one that's newly doing this, is even asking if it can text me ads as part of it's membership coupon system, it's a store I will no longer do business with or at least try my best to avoid.
For now the store set is buccheight.
I don't now have an active smartphone & if I ever get one, I will absolutely not give it to any business.

In its judgment, the General Court of the European Union strengthened the conciliation and regulatory powers of the European Data Protection Board.
"The DPC will have to continue its investigations into Meta unless it chooses to refer the matter to the European Court of Justice. Given the timeline of the original investigation, which began in 2018, it may still take several years before a final determination is made regarding the GDPR compliance of Meta’s business model, particularly in relation to behavioural advertising."
