"I was huge into Smashing Pumpkins growing up, but then they started sucking after the 90's"
I would never say that about them. Even the later albums had lots of depth...it's like every other good band; always being compared to what they did in the past, is it different, is it as good as it was, etc.
Dude I was born in the middle of the 80's so that's all the crap I grew up with lol. I was huge into Smashing Pumpkins growing up, but then they started sucking after the 90's.
Their original drummer Jimmy Chamberlin was fuckin' awesome, but I think he was on heroin or something so they fired him after the Mellon Collie album and they started to get weird with Adore, but I still liked some of it. To be honest they still had some songs I liked after that with Stand Inside Your Love and some other stuff... But I never felt they were the same after Jimmy left the first time. He came back later on the Zeitgeist album but I think it's just him and Billy Corgan on that one. Darcy left too it and it was just never the same band.

Look, Jeff Atwood, it is difficult to take you seriously when you write authoritatively on a subject you clearly don’t understand.
GDPR doesn’t mandate cookie notices.
Cookie notices are *malicious compliance* by the surveillance-driven adtech industry.
If you’re not tracking people, you do not need a cookie notice, period.
If you’re only using first-party cookies for functional reasons, you do not need a cookie notice, period.
If you’re using third-party cookies to track people – i.e., if you’re sharing their data with others – then *you must have their consent to do so*. Because, otherwise, you are violating their privacy. Even then, the law doesn’t mandate a cookie notice.
How would you conform to EU law without a cookie notice if your aim wasn’t malicious compliance?
You would not track people by default and you would make it so they have to go your site’s settings to turn on third-party tracking if, for some inexplicable reason, they wanted that “feature”.
Boom!
No cookie notice necessary.
What’s that?
But that would destroy your business because your business is founded on the fundamental mechanic of violating people’s privacy?
Good.
Your business doesn’t deserve to exist.
Because the real bullshit here isn’t EU legislation that protects the human right to privacy, it’s the toxic Silicon Valley/Big Tech business model of farming people for data that violates everyone’s privacy and opens the door to technofascism.
Look, EU, it is difficult to take you seriously when you forced all this cookie notification bullshit on us. That feature a) should not exist and b) if it did, should be a BROWSER feature not "every website in the entire world now has to bother everyone forever about this stupid thing" blog.codinghorror.com/breaking…
The Firefox add-in Firesheep caused quite an uproar a few weeks ago, and justifiably so. Here’s how it works:
* Connect to a public, unencrypted WiFi network.
whether or not this is technically correct it totally nails how I feel about cookie notices. They're obviously compliance theatre. I hate them all, especially when you have to accept 'necessary cookies' or else you get them all (you probably get them all anyway). Plus which data privacy gaslighter even needs cookies now? They've probably moved on to even more invasive methods. Oh, did I mention I hate cookies and their stupid fake notices?
GDMR: The regulation EU citizens deserve.
No, you didn’t misread it and, no, it’s not a typo. GDMR – the General Data Minimisation Regulation – can end surveillance capitalism in the EU.
The problem is that no such regulation exists.
@writingslowly There’s a problem with point 1 - who decides what “can be built”? For instance: Many legislators want companies to implement encrypted communication in a way such that they - and only they - can listen in. Numerous experts believe such a system can’t be built (at least not securely).
If I’d run a company I’d rather not end up in court where a lawyer explains to me what can be built and what not.
Yes, regulation, like any legislation can be good or bad. That said, if you run, say a construction company, a lawyer does explain to you what can and can’t be built. You don’t just get to dig up a park and put in luxury apartments because you feel like it. You don’t get to construct a factory and dump your sewage into the sea. Or, more to the point, if you run a cinema, you don’t get to put cameras in the bathrooms. There are many things you don’t get to do if you run a company because they would infringe on the rights of others and your right to make a profit doesn’t supersede that.
I hope you’re teaching your students that they should be thoughtful in what they build so that it benefits humanity. We don’t need more things, we need more things that improve human welfare. And the last thing we need are more libertarian techbros who think they can do whatever they want in pursuit of their gluttonous profiteering and that rules don’t apply to them. That’s how we end up with technofascism.
@yahe @marix yes, we would. The mentioned ePD covers also non-personal data, thus is not necessarily lex specialis to the GDPR. This is why the ePD e.g. covers all cookies, not only tracking (or browser fingerprinting, or ..., and also responsive Design (but does not mandate aquiring consent for that as it is functional for the service requested by the user)).
@codinghorror Are we sure that Jeff Atwood isn't an early LLM experiment? The straight-up overconfidence as he spouts completely incorrect and ignorant shit feels an awful lot like ChatGPT and its coterie of concussed digital parrots.
Oh, wait. The "voice" of these is modelled after what techbrodudes think sounds smart. I may have put the teleological cart before the horse.
Exactly. And his "all websites" particularly grates because I could point him at a bunch of websites I've been involved with that don't have any cookie notice for the reasons you say.
@fabienmarry @codinghorror Yes. I’d be completely fine with legislating that every browser reinstate that feature, have it on by default, and compel sites to obey it without asking again. That would also solve the problem.
they are even almost never compliance as most of them don't follow requirements for being compliant by making it hard to refuse all, and by having so much information and "partners", that makes it impossible for any human been to actually be informed by all of them, and therefore, can't ever exist informed consent.
@jenesuispasgoth @knud I work in e-commerce in Europe. Mostly the banners are there because such websites do use a lot of third party services for purposes that range from marketing campaign monitoring to user session recordings (for debugging). Apart from developing everything in house or hosting the tools, there aren’t a lot of ways to avoid the banners.
@knud but even if you sold something, you would not need to put up a cookie banner : to sell something you require some information to complete the sale (address where to ship, and/or info about the means to pay for the good or service sold). None of that would be illegitimate.
I didn't read the 🦷 from Jeff. I fully understand the no tracking and I'm glad I live in the eu and privacy is taken seriously. But I also understand the need for cookies , at least for analytics and I think the cookie consent ux is awful. I get cookie consent blind and click allow all ... Usually the default.. to get to the content. It could be super nice if the cookie-banners could steered by request accept headers as standard. In that way I would only need to set the browser settings
@praerien 1. You don’t need third-party cookies for analytics. Services exist that provide analytics without third-party tracking.
2. The “UX” (design) of cookie consent banners is anti-pattern implemented by the adtech industry exactly to invoke this reaction and misdirect your ire from the tracking itself to the law meant to protect your rights.
3. Your suggested solution would, indeed, nip this in the bud. This is why the surveillance industry made sure to remove Do Not Track the moment they realised it could be used for this purpose. (After all, it has served Mozilla/Silicon Valley’s purpose of delaying regulation for a decade and now had become a liability.)
True, load Vivaldi.com or our forums or indeed any site we run. No cookie banners. We have been asked before how we manage to do this but it ain't rocket science.
Also look at all the Mastodon sites, no banners, unlike X, Threads, etc. How? We all know how. 😉
1. Every browser needs to, by default, be set to allow "strictly necessary cookies" only. 2. Every site that wants to serve EU users must honour this setting. 3. Impose massive fines on sites that don't do this or that choose to interpret "strictly necessary only" in "creative" ways.
So that anybody who does not want other cookies has to do exactly nothing to achieve that.
GDMR: The regulation EU citizens deserve.
No, you didn’t misread it and, no, it’s not a typo. GDMR – the General Data Minimisation Regulation – can end surveillance capitalism in the EU.
The problem is that no such regulation exists.
Really the main problem of this enforcement is that it came too late, when (almost) everyone was already dependent on collecting private data. That made it easy for the industry to collectively decide that intrusive popups would be the simplest way to comply.
What were people going to do, take their business to the competition? Doesn't matter, they do it too.
If regulation had come earlier, then the first ones to use popups would have been seen as obnoxious assholes and lost visitors.
My own criticism of that EU law is that they didn't bother to check if there were ever any reason to let yourself be voluntarily tracked - there isn't. The whole thing should've been a law that makes it illegal.

No, you didn’t misread it and, no, it’s not a typo. GDMR – the General Data Minimisation Regulation – can end surveillance capitalism in the EU.
The problem is that no such regulation exists.
I'd argue they're actually malicious non-compliance, since every implementation I've worked with uses third-party cookies to save user's "choice", & many would run ads using third-party cookies until prompted otherwise, & many would ignore user input altogether.
@jenesuispasgoth @knud it is partly possible indeed; thing is, it costs much more money in initial setup and recurring upkeep, with less flexibility and no tangible benefit in a market where users have "accepted" the ubiquity of the banner.
So in your world, how do you sell a customer a thing, without having to have a salesman call them? Oh wait, phone numbers can't be collected either, without permission... Yes, many sites are using it for adverts, but lots are also trying to sell a product that isn't the browser.
@Dss In my world, which the same world you live in, if a person provides their phone number to have a sales person call them, they are consenting to have the sales person call them and you can use their phone number for the purpose of having a sales person call them which is what the person has given you permission to do.
Do you need a cookie notice for that?
No.
(That said, it’s not my job to fix toxic business models.)
Lin et al. found that ad blocker users are more satisfied with the products and services they buy than non-users. There _is_ a theoretical economic role of advertising but surveillance advertising is failing at it
Lots of pro-surveillance advocacy from academics, but they don't cite some of the best sources in their own field, or some of the best points in the body copy of the papers they do cite—even Google refers to de-personalizing the ads as a "protection" blog.zgp.org/advertising-perso…
@fabienmarry @codinghorror That's a better solution, and then you only meet the committee notice when you add something to a basket, or log in, or whatever. A bit like auto blocking those "Follow this website?" notifications until you at least interact with the website!
I think every instance has questionable people on it. If you see misinformation please report it, the moderators and instance owner @/jerry take it very seriously
this was DNT and DNT was killed by BROWSERS. Because lumpsum unintelligible data collection notices allowed to continue all evil practices with just a change on a web notice. So the argumentation of @codinghorror is particularly torn.
I wrote something like this a couple of times here. People don't understand that there is no need for cookie banners for the technically necessary cookies the website need to function, only for the optional shit that usually is tracking. And that those banners are full of dark patterns, made to annoy users so they click on "agree to all".
That’s the problem with theory and practise : in real life an army of lawyers and „experts“ advice you to behave exactly like all the others. And all the public services provide bad examples since they behave exactly in the same wrong way.
In reality, GDPR brought the opposite results of what we wanted to achieve.
@hey Yes, aggregate analytics – what you describe – does not constitute tracking.
(That is different from anonymised data; anonymised data can be deanonymised using other data sets – a common practice within the people farming industry.)
What I *do* think should be a browser feature if we're really serious about doing away with cookie notices is having an option to either auto-accept, auto-deny, or for you to actually have to click every single gods damned notice. Since most of them already have a "necessary cookies only" option, that alone would get rid of 90% of the banners. And even then, devs could write something to parse more needlessly complicated menus for that. The only way to get around that, which I don't even know if this is in compliance with GDPR, is for websites to en masse get rid of the option and do what some have done where it's just a popup that says "We use third party cookies. Don't like it? Hit the road then." But again, I'm not even sure if those actually comply with the GDPR
@disorderlyf This feature already exists. It is just that ad-tech ignored that users were sending a do-not-track request and instead they opted for trying to nudge everyone into accepting their surveillance, by making obnoxious cookie banners.
@uncanny_static @disorderlyf It’s worse than that: this was a feature spearheaded by Mozilla (Silicon Valley’s acceptable face) and it had the very real effect of staving off regulation for a decade (“look, we are self regulating”). The moment people realised it could be used to communicate consent within the framework of GDPR, the feature was deprecated.
Sadly, some folks still think Mozilla are the good guys.
Minor nitpick: the cookie banners are not even malicious compliance since they tend to rely on consent without meeting the requirements for said consent. More like performative non-compliance then.
If I hosted my own private analytics tracker (something like Matomo (née Piwik), e.g.) just so I could have funny numbers to look at because I like to look at numbers but do nothing meaningful with them, would that require a cookie banner?
I'd pondered about just having a static notice in the footer of my site that just says "This site uses some functional cookies and one (1) tracking cookie for a self-hosted analytics dashboard because I like to look at Numbers™."
I had a brief and regrettable stint at a German ad tech firm while GDPR came into force. The conversation in the room was literally "how do we make this as inconvenient as possible for people so that they just click accept?" Advertising should be illegal.
The hilarious part was that this WAS a browser feature, dnt, but the industry didn't like that everyone enabled DNT so they refused to use it and use cookie pop ups instead. He doesn't even know that basic history either.
@david_chisnall @urlyman @noybeu Indeed. And yes they are but enforcement of GDPR should fall on the shoulders of more than one small law firm. Good thing they exist but it also shows how messed up the system is in general.
@urlyman It's often not even malicious compliance. Most of these banners don't even meet the requirements of the GDPR, specifically that you must be able to withdraw consent at any time and that you mist give informed consent (i.e. that you must know what you have consented to to be able to grant consent).
@noybeu is doing a great job going after some of these people.
Misleading. If you implement first party cookies for your own analytics to improve your website (like... what content is more popular, what pages are broken from UX standpoint), you still have to show the cookie notice.
Whether it's first or third party is not part of the equation.
@codinghorror I remind you that this is Jeff Attwood you are finger wagging at here. He is wrong on this take. But if you really think this invalidates his critique of capitalism or his significant charity work then I think you might consider reappraising your position.
Microsoft-owned GitHub today announced that it is doing away with all non-essential cookies on its platform. Thanks to this, starting today, GitHub.com
@codinghorror @andrewrk I think what people are trying to tell you is that you’re part of the problem.
You’re not just any “user of the internet”, you’re a developer. You have agency. Don’t like cookie banners? Great! Lead by example: remove them from the sites you own and control (i.e., stop tracking people on the sites you own and control. Find other ways to make money.)
@codinghorror @andrewrk the first linked comment especially leans towards the businessperson perspective - sure, content creators want to make money off personal data by selling ads, but nobody is entitled to get that data unobtrusively. If you want it, you need to put up the banner.
@codinghorror Look, Aral Balkan, we could have a very juicy and polarizig conversation about this, but it wouldn’t help the cause. 🤓 And the cause, as I understand it, is to advance the privacy of citizens, with fully informed consent and as little hassle as needed. I believe that a large portion of the cookie banners on the web are presented just because that’s the default. 1/4
@mathew @mkj @praerien I made a script that tracks Latvian websites that have the "load cookies first then ask for permission" problem: https://sīkdatnes.lv
For problematic sites, I send an informal email explaining the problem and asking to fix it. In case of no action, I send a formal, signed complaint. And then in case of no action, I report them to our country's DPA.
In quite a few cases the informal email is enough, and the issue gets acknowledged and fixed.
@mathew @mkj @praerien some do, some don't. Some don't because they're oblivious, some intentionally.

Προσπαθουν Φινλανδοι, BBC να πεισουν οτι η σβαστικα της αεροποριας τους, ειναι συμβολο απο το 1918, πολυ πριν το 3ο Ραιχ, κ οτι δεν ειχε πολιτικο χαρακτηρα... Αυτο που δεν λενε βεβαια ειναι οτι η σβαστικα δοθηκε απ τον χορηγο τους σουηδο Eric Von Rosen, ο οποιος ηταν εθνικοσοσιαλιστης πολυ πριν το 1933, ιδρυτικο μελος μετεπειτα του ναζιστικου κινηματος στη Σουηδια στα 1930. Και του οποιου το αεροπλανο με τη σβαστικα χρησιμοποιησαν στον εμφυλιο το 1917 εναντια στους κομμουνιστες Φιλανδους
Ισοθερμικά Lunch box και παπαριτσες . Ένα τοστ μας έφτιαχναν της κακιάς ώρας το τύλιγαν με μια χαρτοπετσέτα και 3 κιλά αλουμινόχαρτο και το έριχναν στην τσάντα . Μετά το ξετυλίγαμε αλλοιώναμε τα ραδιοκύματα της γειτονιάς με τα αλουμινόχαρτα και μασούσαμε και λίγο χαρτί για την κυτταρίνη . #greece
I sent mails via a Python script and SMTP. can I verify somehow whether the mails arrived with the recipients or whether they got filtered? I tried to make SPF and DKIM work.
@romin do you let the credit card rot in your inventory as a keepsake or do you «waste» it on recruiting also dont let swagchen see this, but plana is cuter than arona tbh
@forcedinductionretard you don't exactly lose it, it gets replaced with a crumbled card item if you use it. Some people to try to meme recruit fat siroko during fes with it, I don't plan to use mine for the foreseeable future tho. Plana a cute agree
*sniffs, tugs at shirt* You know, the true perversity of Evangelion is not the obvious Freudian symbology -- the mother in the robot, the father who abandons, and so on and so on -- but rather how it stages the fundamental deadlock of the otaku subject under late capitalism.
*gestures wildly* Here you have Shinji, the perfect neoliberal subject: he doesn't want to pilot the Eva, he hates it, but he does it anyway! Why? Because of some abstract duty? No! Because he has already internalized the superego injunction to enjoy his own exploitation. "I mustn't run away" - this is not courage, this is the purest ideology!
*touches nose* But the real obscenity -- and here Anno is a true genius, whether he knows it or not -- is how the series presents instrumentalisation itself as traumatic. NERV literally dissolves the boundary between human and machine, mother and weapon, and what do we get? Not liberation but pure anxiety! The EVA units are the perfect metaphor for our digital predicament: we are told these technologies will extend our capabilities, make us posthuman, but instead we discover *laughs darkly* that we were always already instruments!
Gendo's Human Instrumentality Project is just making explicit what capitalism already does: reducing humans to pure exchangeable substance, orange goo, the ultimate liquidity!
*sniff* And the masterstroke is the ending - not the false happy ending of End of Evangelion, but the original episodes 25 and 26, where the budget runs out and we get pure interiority. *waves hands* "Congratulations!" they all say to Shinji. But for what? For accepting his place in the symbolic order? This is the ultimate perversity: the show literally cannot afford to show the apocalypse, so instead it stages the real catastrophe - the subject accepting his own subjection as liberation! The production committee pulls the funding, and Anno turns this material limitation into the perfect metaphor for ideological closure!
*adjusts shirt violently* You know what nobody wants to admit? Evangelion is not about robots or aliens or whatever -- it's about the impossibility of authentic action under capitalism. Every character is trapped in their own repetition compulsion: Misato drinks, Asuka performs superiority, Rei submits to erasure; and the Angels? The Angels are just the return of the repressed, the stupid insistence of the Real that says: your little techno-military complex cannot contain the trauma of existence!
