@falsifian@www.falsifian.org Do you have specifics about the GRPD law about this?

Would the GDPR would apply to a one-person client like jenny? I seriously hope not. If someone asks me to delete an email they sent me, I don’t think I have to honour that request, no matter how European they are.

I’m not sure myself now. So let’s find out whether parts of the GDPR actually apply to a truly decentralised system? 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net I have no specifics, only hopes. (I have seen some articles explaining the GDPR doesn’t apply to a “purely personal or household activity” but I don’t really know what that means.)

I don’t know if it’s worth giving much thought to the issue unless either you expect to get big enough for the GDPR to matter a lot (I imagine making money is a prerequisite) or someone specifically brings it up. Unless you enjoy thinking through this sort of thing, of course.

Yeah I’m curious to find out too beyond just “here say”. But regardless of whether we should or shouldn’t care about this or should or shouldn’t comply. We should IMO. I’d have to build something that horrendously violates someone’s rights in another country.

This has specifically come up before in the form of “informal complaints” against yarnd because of the way it permanently stores and archives Twts, so even if you decide you changed your mind, or deleted that line out of your feed, if my pod or @xuu@txt.sour.is or @abucci@anthony.buc.ci or @eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club (or any other handful of pods still around?) saw the Twt, it’d be permanently archived.

But this is no different to how jenny does things with storing every Twt in a Maildir I suppose? 🤔

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Thanks for this! 🙏
