Well, GDPR requires that you do those things. A clear EULA that says we don't do any of those things so if you don't like it don't use our service would still be illegal under GDPR…

See above my comment about practicality. It takes no effort for me to not violate your first amendment rights. It's a negative right, not a positive right.

Patents, yeah. Copyright and trademark are really about fraud than theft. Trade secrets are trade secrets: the violation comes from trying to circumvent security, not having the da…

(see my window shade example above)

Well, I liken it to window shades. You don't own the photons bouncing off of you so if someone looks in your window and the shades aren't closed, then they aren't stealing your ima…

Then there's that.

I 100% agree. The problem is that practically rights have to be reasonably respectable (able to be respected) by people at little cost to them. Like, it's not difficult for me to n…

Well if the USA were to have a law that is GDPR "like", that's in there.

Can we just take a step back and admit that treating an IP address as personal information is patently ridiculous?

That's exactly what this is. GDPR is untenable and creates magical rights where none exist. You don't own information about you. Data is data. The only reasonable thing I can see o…

tcpdump + CloudShark is my go-to. Usually using cURL with their API or SCP via Couchdrop.

You're right. I should clarify that by "we" I mean "the people doing stuff".

Oh man I am having a nostalgia heart attack right now. I remember coding a "guy shooting falling aliens from the bottom of the screen" game and hilariously having the aliens move n…

Musk further said, "This is totally not related to why we want to mine asteroids."

I think cloudshark ended up doing this anyway, probably not with PacketQ on the backend though.

It looks like it's just using dumpcap, so yes? Whatever Wireshark can do I would suspect.

I'm pretty sure that's just a script anyone could write. Looks like it just makes one API call.

It's also great combined with something like CURL you can upload the captures to CloudShark and skip using Wireshark entirely.
