But, being a lawyer, I of course had to review the privacy policy, which expressly states that to ensure compliance with COPPA, the app is not directed at children under the age of 13 and that children under 13 are not permitted to use the app. Sigh.

"The #EU’s #DigitalMarketsAct (DMA) is a 2022 legislation that regulates the digital market competition in the region. It prevents #TechGiants (#Meta, #Amazon, #Apple, and #Google) from cornering the market of a specific product or service, and allows smaller companies to compete against them."
Why isn't #Threads in the EU? The app tests the bloc's new #PrivacyLaw

If you live in the #uk and are interested in #privacy - then you might want to add your signature to my petition to block the Online Safety Bill. This bill threatens basic encryption and would give the government access to everybody's personal communications.

‘A Federal Trade Commission lawsuit filed yesterday accused Ring, the home security camera company owned by Amazon, of invading users' privacy by "allowing thousands of employees and contractors to watch video recordings of customers' private spaces."’ https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2023/06/ftc-amazon-ring-workers-illegally-spied-on-users-of-home-security-cameras/
Amazon might be fined $25 million. If so, that’s roughly what Amazon makes every half hour. And what an Amazon worker grosses in roughly a million hours.
