    That's fair for law documents; in the same way I'd expect your peers to understand your SQL. I just wish privacy policies, which are supposed to be for consumers, were written in t…

    Adding to this, Epic/Fortnite are planning a short which goes live in 10mins called Nineteen Eighty-Fortnite. Most likely to be a parody of the 1984 Apple ad. Yup, it's a marketing…
