@movq@www.uninformativ.de @falsifian@www.falsifian.org @prologic@twtxt.net Maybe I donāt know what Iām talking about and Youāve probably already read this: Everything you need to know about the āRight to be forgottenā coming straight out of the EUās GDPR Website itself. It outlines the specific circumstances under which the right to be forgotten applies as well as reasons that trump the oneās right to erasure ā¦etc.
Iām no lawyer, but my uneducated guess would be that:
A) twts are already publicly available/public knowledge and suchā¦ just donāt process childrenās personal data and MAYBE youāre good? Since thereās this:
ā¦ an organizationās right to process someoneās data might override their right to be forgotten. Here are the reasons cited in the GDPR that trump the right to erasure:
- The data is being used to exercise the right of freedom of expression and information.
- The data is being used to perform a task that is being carried out in the public interest or when exercising an organizationās official authority.
- The data represents important information that serves the public interest, scientific research, historical research, or statistical purposes and where erasure of the data would likely to impair or halt progress towards the achievement that was the goal of the processing.
B) What I love about the TWTXT sphere is itās Human/Humane element! No deceptive algorithms, no Corpo B.S ā¦etc. Just Humans. So maybe ā¦ If we thought about it in this way, it wouldnāt heart to be even nicer to others/offering strangers an even safer space.
I could already imagine a couple of extreme cases where, somewhere, in this peaceful world oneās exercise of freedom of speech could get them in Real trouble (if not danger) if found out, it wouldnāt necessarily have to involve something to do with Law or legal authorities. So, If someone asks, and maybe fearing fearing forā¦ letās just say āTheir well beingā, would it heart if a pod just purged their content if itās serving it publicly (maybe relay the info to other pods) and call it a day? It doesnāt have to be about some law/convention somewhere ā¦ š¤· I know! Too extreme, but Iāve seen news of people whoād gone to jail or got their lives ruined for as little as a silly joke. And it doesnāt even have to be about any of this.
P.S: Maybe make X
tool check out robots.txt? Or maybe make long-term archives Opt-in? Opt-out?
P.P.S: Already Way too many MAYBEās in a single twt! So Iāll just shut up. š
