Any form of threatening, harassing, or violence / physical harm towards anyone will result in a ban

We have posted this before, but this needs to be reiterated.

We understand that many of you are emotionally driven to discuss your feelings on recent events, most notably the repeal of Net Neutrality - however inciting violence towards others is never ok. It is upsetting that we even have to post this.

Do we enjoy banning people for these types of offences? No... Many of us feel as if the system has failed and want some form of repercussion. But threats of violence and harassment are not the answer here.

And to be clear - here are some examples of what will get you banned:

I hope this PoS dies in a car fire

I want to punch him in the face til his teeth fall out

And if you are trying to be slick by using this form

I never condone violence but...

I would never say he should die but...

Im not one to wish death upon but...

Let's keep the threads civil.

If you violate this rule, you will be banned for 30 days, no exceptions

Does your favourite app share data with Facebook? We are Privacy International and we're here to discuss the results of our latest app audit. Some apps violate your privacy by automatically sending personal data to Facebook. We've released our testing environment so you can replicate our work - AMA

We are Privacy International (PI). PI challenges overreaching state and corporate surveillance, so that people everywhere can have greater security and freedom through greater personal privacy.

Verification Photo for this AMA

In December 2018, we revealed how some of the most widely used apps in the Google Play store automatically send personal data to Facebook the moment they are launched. That happens even if you don't have a Facebook account or are logged out of the Facebook platform (our talk on the subject is here)

As of Today:

• We have retested all apps in from our original study.
• A number of apps no longer transfer personal data to Facebook the moment a users opens the app.
• However, many apps still exhibit the same behaviour we described in our original report. These apps automatically transfer personal data to Facebook the moment a user opens the app, before people are able to agree or consent. This happens whether people have a Facebook account or not, or whether they are logged into Facebook or not.

In addition, we have also released our testing environment, so that others can expand on our work.

Frederike Kaltheuner, PI's Lead on Corporate Exploitation and Christopher Weatherhead, Technology Officer will be here from 10:30AM UTC0 (GMT) to discuss our research, findings and our environment!

We won't begin answering questions for a little while yet, this AMA will start at 10:30AM GMT (UTC0), this was posted early to allow questions to accumulate
