I'm waiting for them to suggest it should be moved to the cloud rather than put in data centres. This is a symptom of widespread technological illiteracy, globally (at least in the west)

Ah - now I actually have to come to his defense. Because I only quoted the part immediately after this one and thought it was enough: > Ruiter says he’s continued to talk about data centers because he wants to remind people that “the cloud” they’ve come to rely on isn’t just an ethereal concept—it’s something that has a physical manifestation, here in the farmland of North Holland. He worries that growing demand for…

Writing from rome, italy. These bureaucrats only pretend to work. The number of privacy violations in italy is staggering, i have to take 10 calls a day from power companies because they have access to all the phone number of anybody who has a gas or energy contract.

GPT can help creating legal documents, in a very easy and quick way, by everyone, a small child or a plumber. Lawyers in general try to stifle competition in order for their salaries to go sky high. So what's the profession of a lawmaker, most of the time?

Singapore is a parliamentary democracy with elected members of parliament and president. It is certainly not a "totalitarian country", although it could be considered authoritarian compared to western democracies.

I’d believe it. Apparently you can’t use any 3rd party service that might expose merely an IP address thru a network request directly from the client. A map widget would do that.

You can as long as you ask for consent. In which case the detail OP ommited would be that they did not in fact ask for consent
