this law doesn't allow advertisers to buy data about individuals, but only anonymized aggregate groups. So you can buy which domains are being visited by anonymized groups from a specific service area (say a ZIP code), but cannot pinpoint what an individual congressman is browsing or any specific content being browsed or written.
Then much of Reddit has the implications of this repeal wrong.
Even of they were to sell an individual's data, they wouldn't be able to see anything passing over https other than the domain. For e.g, they wouldn't know you're a regular poster in /r/furry, juwt that you visit reddit.com. If you retarded enough do private stuff over http, you deserve to have your privacy breached IMO.
It's true, unless you live in an utopian society don't dress like a hooker and wander around bad parts of town looking for trouble. Likewise don't do private stuff over http.
Yeah the more I read about this the more I think He's wrong. There's no possibility of targeted advertising with anonymized data over a service area unless that service "area" is an endpoint node, i.e. your home router.
"Web browsing and app usage history are not 'sensitive information,'" CTIA said in a filing with the Federal Communications Commission yesterday. CTIA is the main lobbyist group representing mobile broadband providers such as AT&T, Verizon Wireless, T-Mobile USA, and Sprint.
So, /u/rationalcomment, why would ISPs petition to declassify browser history if they were going to turn around and anonymize it? That doesn't make sense. What would the value in anonymous browser histories be? All the articles I'm seeing seem to imply that ISPs want to sell this data for use in super targeted advertising.
NCTA-The Internet & Television Association, which represents cable companies, also argued that Section 222 doesn't cover broadband or customers' "personally identifiable information."
That quote certainly doesn't scream "anonymized data"
So happy I've filtered /r/pics and subscribed to /r/pic. No more dumb pictures of Obama "Thanks Obama", 50k upvotes, then a pic of Trump "Look, he is literally Hitler", 70k upvotes
I dunno I kinda like the literal salt mines political agenda posts on r/all generate. You can get a full day's worth of autism/insecure butt hurt with one sort by controversial in those threads.
I dunno I kinda like the literal salt mines political agenda posts on r/all generate. Theyre like a battle royale of insecure butt hurt with one sort by controversial in those threads.
Don't you miss the "here's a boring picture of my gay, autistic,one legged dog that just died, give me karma as I can't grieve like a functional human being" posts though?
I find it a little too coincidental that in a 5 hour old post mentioning them both by name, /u/rationalcomment and /u/irrational_comment_ both show up to post replies at the exact same minute. (While writing this comment, BOTH of their replies in this thread were posted 19 minutes ago). It seems /u/rationalcomment and /u/irrational_comment_ ARE THE SAME PERSON.
u/rationalcomment is by far the most autistic commenter on reddit so it only makes sense that he has two accounts to counter all criticism of his Adderall rants.
I've never gotten any pms from Rational actually, and I've never sent any to him. Irrational sent me one while the linked thread was happening though, mostly laughing about how Rational thinks I'm him yadayada. I seriously just poke the guy occasionally on /pics, since that's the only place I really see him while browsing. Dude went apeshit about a month ago.
PS : Hillary or Trump ?
You want the actual one or the one that'll start more drama here? (they might be the same? I dunno the crowd here I tend to hang out on SRD more.)
It's great how the big subs are all obsessively paranoid about supposed "shills" saying shit they don't like and downvote to oblivion, but then they worshipfully suck off these actual shill accounts like /u/RationalComment and /u/NebraskaGunOwner because they push narratives that default Redditors want to hear.
I don't mean to imply that they are being paid or influenced to post how they do. But they clearly camp the Rising queue and post finely honed, pandering, repetitive comments about a narrow range of issues. They don't act like people who are just reading Reddit obsessively and often post about politics because they see something they have an opinion on; they act like they're trying in a planned and thought-out way to reach as many people as possible with a preset narrative. Whether or not it was actually a job for them they posted as if it were their job.

I don't know man, I've never seen Trump and Hitler in the same place at the same time. This is very concerning imho.

Doesn't trophy hunting in Africa ironically end up helping their economy more that those poverty tourists that build deathtrap schools?

I'm pretty sure most of the things those white tourists build get torn down and rebuilt they are so shit, so probably.

pretty sure the default redditors are not in favor of trump propaganda. Bots, however, are.

Oh, they absolutely are though, as long as it's phrased as anti-Clinton or anti-"Establishment" or anti-"SJW" instead of directly pro-Trump.
